John Kay’s Steppenwolf brought their act to the Avalon in April of 1968– just a few months prior to the release of their classic single “Born to be Wild”. Here's an opportunity to get a first print poster for a very affordable price. We believe this poster is super conservatively graded and could easily have earned a designation a notch or two higher. Many collectors believe posters graded 8.5 by CGC represent the very best value in today’s market! See our blog dated 1/31/18 for more details.
