Bands listed include: Jefferson Airplane, the Doors, Big Brother & the Holding Company (with Janis Joplin), the Grateful Dead, Quicksilver Messenger Service, Chuck Berry, Vanilla Fudge, Santana and many more. Art by Lee Conklin, Bonnie MacLean and Wes Wilson. Images are #'s 37, 99, 100, 152 and 153 in the Bill Graham/Fillmore series and are assorted sizes (mostly around 4&1/2 x 7", the BG 37 is 4&1/4 x &&7/8"). Medium-thick flat index stock and glossy-coated index stock cards are all in near mint to good (A- to B) condition; aside from a couple of pronounced diagonal bends on the 153 card, a 1" diagonal bend in the bottom right corner of the 152 card and a couple of corner dings and a 2" diagonal bend in the lower right corner of the 37, the collection as a whole is pretty sharp. A nice varied selection of ORIGINAL Bill Graham New Year's cards all featuring top bands/acts. A fine little collection for just about any taste.
