This is the FIRST CGC Graded example of this early Wes Wilson & John Moehring designed poster to appear in our auction! An Original First Printing for the Retina Circus Light Shows happening in Seattle and San Francisco during the late sixties. The light show’s co-founder Bob Carr was friends with artist Wes Wilson and introduced him to one of Seattle’s most prolific poster artists John Moehring. Moehring’s role in the Seattle music scene was becoming established as too was Wilson’s blossoming in San Francisco as well. To learn more about the Retina Circus Light Show watch this video. This beautiful early collaboration issue is the FIRST Original Printing example we’ve had surface for collectors in our auction! Major eye appeal and super clean condition!
