Original 1st printing 13&3/8 x 20&7/8" concert poster for Jefferson Airplane appearing with Andrew Staples and the P.H. Phactor Jug Band on 9/2-3/1966, the Grateful Dead appearing with Quicksilver Messenger Service and Country Joe & the Fish on 9/4/1966 and Martha & the Vandellas appearing with Johnny Talbot and De Thangs on 9/5/1966, all shows held at the Fillmore Auditorium in San Francisco, CA. Art by Wes Wilson, image is # 26 in the Bill Graham/Fillmore series. Medium-thin flat vellum stock poster is in good (B to B/B-) condition; pin/staple holes in each corner and a few additional ones scattered around the outer edges, a pair of subtle vertical moisture stains running from the top right margin down about 6-7" into the image, light handling/creasing, a bit of edge wear (a few scattered nicks and dings along the bottom margin) and a stray bend or two, otherwise fine. Apparently this one was hung up outdoors at the time of the shows, it exhibits most of the conditional issues that come with exposure to weather- still, it has actually held up remarkably well, especially considering the fragility of the stock. These are a lot harder to find than a lot of folks realize, especially in decent shape.
