This is a second print, post-concert poster (printed shortly after the show) from a November 1966 performance by the Grateful Dead, James Cotton Blues Band and Lothar and the Hand People, at the Fillmore Auditorium, San Francisco, California.

Art by Wes Wilson is a classic design for a great triple bill at the Fillmore. This is among the quintessential posters of the psychedelic scene.

Second and third prints (where available) are enjoying a resurgence among collectors as they provide a more reasonable price point than their now very pricey original cousins. These second prints were often printed within a year or two of the concerts, so they’re only a slightly “newer” versions. They were printed from the original printing plates, so the quality is high, and they frame up as well as the pre-concert versions.
