Original 1st printing 14 x 21&1/4" concert poster for the Jimi Hendrix Experience appearing with John Mayall's Bluesbreakers and Albert King at the Fillmore Auditorium and Winterland in San Francisco, CA from 2/1-4/1968. Art by (and SIGNED in gold ink by) Rick Griffin, image ("Flying Eyeball") is # 105 in the Bill Graham/Fillmore series. Medium flat index stock poster is in absolutely fantastic near mint to excellent (A-/B+ to B+) condition; a set of nearly-invisible pin holes in all four corners, a touch of light moisture rippling around the edges, a couple of VERY well-camouflaged thin bends in the lower right corner and a couple of ultra-soft stains on the reverse (they don't show through to the front of the poster), otherwise this is a FANTASTIC 1st printing example of one of the most coveted posters in the entire series. Undeniably one of Rick Griffin's finest moments, this ranks up there among the best-looking examples I have seen in 20+ years. A STUNNER! *I have added close-ups of the bottom corners and reverse.
