Original 1st printing 22 x 28&1/2" concert poster for a series of Bill Graham-produced shows held at the Fillmore West in San Francisco, CA from 8/13-25/1968.
Shows listed include: the Who appearing with James Cotton and Magic Sam (8/13-15), Creedence Clearwater Revival with It's A Beautiful Day and Albert Collins (8/16-18), the Grateful Dead with Kaleidoscope and Albert Collins (8/20-22) and Quicksilver Messenger Service with Spooky Tooth and Cold Blood (8/23-25).
Art by Rick Griffin and Alton Kelley, image is # 133 in the Bill Graham/Fillmore series.
Medium-thick flat index stock poster is in good to very good (B to B/B+) condition; there is a small 1/4" pressure crease/nip tear in the upper left margin, along with a series of semi-camouflaged long thin vertical stress bends hiding within the image area, a few tiny edge dings and a thin bend or two scattered around the outer margin area, a hint of handling wear and a whisper of toning (mostly visible on the reverse side), otherwise OK.
This image was originally intended for the Family Dog (FD 130/131 shows), but since Chet couldn't afford color printing, Rick took it over to Bill Graham and simply swapped out the band listings/dates in the left/right panels.
