This is a gorgeous third printing of a gorgeous 1966 concert poster featuring the 13th Floor Elevators, Great Society and Sopwith Camel at the Fillmore Auditorium, San Francisco, California.

This is one of the genre’s most popular and in-demand posters.  Artist Wes Wilson’s fluid lettering dominates the poster, surrounding a spectacular photograph of Grace Slick, then lead singer of the Great Society, just months before joining and going on to fame with the Jefferson Airplane.  The 13th Floor Elevators were a ground breaking psychedelic and highly influential band from Texas.

The condition is near mint minus (9.2), with bright vivid colors.  Overall, the poster is in great condition, with some minor handling along the bottom border, bottom right-hand corner, and a small bit of the top border.  Please see pics for detail.  Otherwise, there are no creases, cuts, pinholes, or tears.  A great example of a classic poster!
