This lot will be accompanied by a Letter of Provenance attesting to the fact that it resided in the historic Early '66 Time Capsule Collection one of the most exciting and important concert poster discoveries of the past 20 years.

Since the inception of PAE 10 years ago we have consistently advised collectors to focus on the first 30 issues of the Bill Graham series. History has proved our advise was correct then and we are sticking with it now. This is an example of the relatively primitive designs of the first few posters for the Fillmore featuring Jefferson Airplane. You can see Wes Wilson's style develop and evolve in these early Bill Graham issues.
