Original 1st printing 14&1/8 x 19&7/8" concert poster for Jefferson Airplane appearing with the Grateful Dead at the Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, CA from 8/12-13/1966.
Art by Wes Wilson, image is # 23 in the Bill Graham/Fillmore series. (BG 23-OP-1 in the Eric King guide)
Medium flat vellum stock poster is in used (B-/C+) condition; as the photo shows, there is a fairly extensive amount of wear and tear (literally) to this example- numerous tears, surface pulls, edge/corner wear, toning, tape marks on the reverse... either a great candidate for restoration or a "filler" example for someone who just wants an original 1st printing at a reduced price.
Still, it's a first edition, it's the Dead and the Airplane and it has always been one of the most popular images in the series.
