Here we have the FINEST QUALITY CGC Graded example of this issue we've ever auctioned! The Legenday Chicago Blues master Muddy Waters was the headliner at this November '66 Fillmore run. The Chess records mainstay was responsible for bringing American roots music to rock star status. Many of the musicans of the era were devotees of the Blues and were heavily influenced by this American treasure.
In February 2018 a signed lower 9.4 graded example reached $450 in our auction. This 9.8 example here is in unimprovable superb museum quality condition! Best of all it's SIGNED by Wes Wilson! More and more collectors are coming into the fold with the knowledge that artist signatures add a whole other dimension to their treasures. Read our blog dated 1/20/18 where we discuss the skyrocketing demand for signed material such as this lot!
