This original Bill Graham poster was created to announce the Fillmore appearance of Blues legend Howlin’ Wolf. Peter Bailey designed this poster. Artist Wes Wilson’s tenure as the Fillmore's primary poster artist for Graham was coming to an end at this point in the series and other artists were starting to work for the irascible promoter.


Many collectors believe that posters graded 8.5 by CGC represent the best value in the marketplace today. See our blog dated 1/31/18 to learn why demand is currently skyrocketing.
