This is a complete set comprising a poster, handbill, and four individual night tickets from a Grateful Dead and Quicksilver Messenger Service run at The Fillmore West in November 1968, a multi-night engagement that captures both bands at a creatively fertile moment. All pieces were designed by Lee Conklin, whose intricate, densely detailed style made him one of the most distinctive voices among the Fillmore's roster of poster artists.The 1st edition poster measures 14 1/16 x 20 3/8 inches, is graded Good with corner dings, and retains a strong visual presence despite its wear. The handbill is graded Good, and the four individual night tickets, covering November 7, 8, 9, and 10, range in condition from Good to Excellent, with the November 10 ticket in particularly fine shape.The inclusion of all four night tickets is a remarkable feature of this lot, as individual tickets from specific show dates are notoriously difficult to locate decades after the fact. Complete sets of this scope, poster, handbill, and a full run of dated tickets, are exceptionally rare and represent the holy grail for many Grateful Dead collectors.This lot is a standout offering and a once-in-a-while opportunity for serious collectors of Dead or Fillmore material.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

BG-144 Grateful Dead & Quicksilver Messenger Service | Complete Set - Poster, Handbill, & 4 Tickets | Lee Conklin | November 7-10, 1968 | First Edition

Before there was a poster, there was a performance. The Fillmore was not merely a concert venue — it was the beating heart of a cultural revolution, a room where the boundaries between artist and audience, between blues and psychedelia, between commerce and counterculture, dissolved night after night into something entirely new. This auction traces that history through the paper artifacts that announced it: original posters, handbills, and tickets spanning from April 1966, when the first shows were barely being documented, through the early 1970s, when the era was already beginning to pass into legend.From Wes Wilson's earliest experiments in flowing psychedelic typography to the intricate masterworks of Bonnie MacLean, Rick Griffin, Stanley Mouse, and Alton Kelley, the lots gathered here represent the full arc of the Fillmore's golden age — and the artists who gave it its face. Jefferson Airplane and the Grateful Dead, Jimi Hendrix and Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and The Doors: these are not merely names on a bill, but the building blocks of a world that still echoes in music, art, and design today. Complete sets with matching handbills and dated tickets sit alongside rare single editions, offering collectors at every level a genuine opportunity to own something irreplaceable. For those who believe that history lives in objects, this is where to look.

This single poster is a 1st edition from October 1967, drawn from the AOR (Art of Rock) series rather than the standard BG run, making it a distinctive and somewhat rarer entry in the Fillmore canon. Featuring Jefferson Airplane and Mother Earth at The Fillmore, the poster was designed by Jim Blashfield, whose work brought a unique visual sensibility to the psychedelic poster tradition.Measuring 13 7/8 x 19.75 inches and graded Excellent, this is a pristine example that has survived over five decades in outstanding condition. The AOR series is sometimes overlooked in favor of the more widely collected BG series, but pieces like this represent a genuine opportunity to acquire high-quality Fillmore material at strong value. Jefferson Airplane was at the absolute peak of their popularity and cultural influence in late 1967, making this a historically resonant piece as well as a visually compelling one.The Excellent grade means there are no significant condition concerns, and this poster would display beautifully framed. A wonderful addition for collectors of Jefferson Airplane material, AOR series posters, or Fillmore history more broadly.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

This is a rare and exciting complete set comprising a poster, handbill, and ticket from the November 1967 Pink Floyd, Big Brother &amp; The Holding Company, and Richie Havens shows at The Fillmore and Winterland, one of the most historically significant bills ever to grace either venue.All three pieces were designed by Bonnie MacLean and together represent a matched set that is exceptionally difficult to assemble. The first edition poster measures 14 1/16 x 21 1/8 inches and is graded Fair, showing tack holes, creases, and black marker in the top-right corner, with wear that is understandable given the poster's age and the cultural moment it captures. By contrast, the handbill (4.5 x 7 inches) is in Excellent condition, and the ticket (2.5 x 4 3/8 inches) is a stunning Mint example, making the overall set a beautifully balanced offering across three different formats.Pink Floyd's early American appearances are among the most coveted subjects in all of rock memorabilia collecting — and this run holds special distinction as the band's United States debut, making pieces from this specific engagement genuinely singular. The combination of all three formats in a single lot is an extraordinary opportunity that rarely presents itself. This complete set would be a crown jewel in any serious collection.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

This poster is a first edition from November 1967, documenting a performance by The Doors at The Fillmore during one of the band's most exciting periods.Designed by Jim Blashfield and measuring 14 x 21.25 inches, the poster is graded Good and shows one tack hole in each corner, paper loss, and tape on the back, condition issues that are common for pieces that were displayed and handled during their original use. While the condition is not without flaws, the poster retains its full graphic impact and remains a highly recognizable and desirable piece.The Doors were at the height of their fame and mystique in late 1967, and original concert posters from this period are among the most sought-after items in rock memorabilia. Jim Blashfield's design work for the Fillmore is less widely known than that of Wilson or MacLean, making this an interesting piece for collectors who appreciate the full breadth of the venue's artistic output. The 3rd edition designation means this is not the most scarce version, but it remains a genuinely authentic artifact from a legendary band's peak years.A strong addition to any Doors or Fillmore collection.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

This single poster is a signed 2nd edition from February 1968, featuring The Jimi Hendrix Experience and John Mayall at both The Fillmore and Winterland, a remarkable double-venue billing that speaks to the scale and ambition of Bill Graham's concert productions during this period. Designed by Rick Griffin, one of the true titans of psychedelic poster art and a pivotal figure in the broader underground art movement of the 1960s, this piece carries significant artistic and historical weight.Measuring 14 x 21 11/16 inches, the poster is graded Poor with creases throughout and staining, reflecting a difficult preservation history. However, the poster carries the exceptional distinction of being hand-signed, a factor that substantially elevates its desirability and collectibility regardless of condition grade.Jimi Hendrix material is among the most passionately collected in all of rock history, and a signed Griffin-designed poster from a 1968 Fillmore show is a genuinely extraordinary artifact.Even in poor condition, the combination of Hendrix, Griffin, and a hand signature makes this one of the most significant pieces in the auction.Collectors who prioritize provenance and historical significance over cosmetic condition will find this lot particularly compelling.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

This is a complete set comprising a signed poster, handbill, and three individual night tickets from Led Zeppelin's legendary April 1969 run at The Fillmore West and Winterland, one of the most celebrated engagements in the band's early American touring history.The 2nd edition poster was designed by Randy Tuten and Peter Pynchon, measures 13 15/16 x 21 inches, and bears a hand signature by Randy Tuten himself, adding a personal and provenance-rich dimension to an already significant piece. The poster is graded Fair with handling marks and creases, described as a "lot copy," but the handbill is in Very Good condition, and the three individual night tickets for April 24, 25, and 26 are graded Very Good, Excellent, and Excellent, respectively.Led Zeppelin's early Fillmore appearances are among the most mythologized in rock history, predating their rise to the stadium-level fame that would define the 1970s, and original material from this period is extraordinarily scarce. The combination of a Tuten-signed poster, a near-complete run of dated tickets, and a handbill in a single lot is a remarkable assemblage that would be nearly impossible to replicate on the open market.This is, without question, one of the marquee lots of the auction and a genuine trophy piece for any serious collector of classic rock memorabilia.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

This partial set comprises a poster and three individual night tickets from a Grateful Dead and New Riders of the Purple Sage run at The Fillmore West in June 1970, designed by David Singer. Singer's work for the Fillmore is characterized by a more refined, painterly approach that distinguished him from the rawer psychedelic energy of his predecessors, and this piece is a fine example of his mature style.The 2nd edition poster measures 14 x 21 inches and is graded an impressive Excellent, making it one of the finest condition examples in the auction. The three individual night tickets, for June 4, 5, and 6, are graded Good, Excellent, and Excellent respectively, rounding out a strong set across all formats represented. This run took place during the final chapter of the original Fillmore West, which closed its doors in 1971, lending these pieces additional historical significance as documents of the venue's final creative years.The New Riders of the Purple Sage were closely associated with the Grateful Dead during this period, with Dead members frequently sitting in, making this a particularly resonant piece for fans of both acts. A beautifully preserved lot that combines an Excellent condition poster with a strong run of matching tickets.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

This single poster is a 3rd edition from February 1966, making it one of the oldest pieces in the entire auction and a document of the very earliest days of the Fillmore's history as a rock venue.Designed by Peter Bailey and measuring 14 5/16 x 19 15/16 inches, this poster predates the emergence of the now-iconic Fillmore visual style that would later that same year be defined by Wes Wilson. The piece is graded Very Good and shows edge imperfections, trimmed edges, and minor rips and creases, entirely understandable for a piece approaching 60 years of age.Jefferson Airplane was one of the pioneering acts of the San Francisco psychedelic scene, and their early Fillmore appearances, documented here, represent the ground floor of what would become a cultural phenomenon.BG 1 is one of the most symbolically significant catalog numbers in the entire Fillmore series, and examples in any condition are keenly sought by serious collectors. The Very Good grade makes this a presentable and displayable example of one of the rarest and most historically important Fillmore posters.An exceptional opportunity to acquire a piece of genuine rock history from the very beginning.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.

This poster is a 4th edition from May 1966, documenting one of the most culturally charged evenings in Fillmore history, a performance by The Velvet Underground under the auspices of Andy Warhol's Exploding Plastic Inevitable multimedia event, sharing the bill with Frank Zappa's The Mothers of Invention.Designed by Wes Wilson and measuring 13 x 19 inches, this poster sits at the intersection of two of the most influential artistic movements of the 1960s: the San Francisco psychedelic scene and the New York avant-garde pop world centered around Warhol's Factory. The poster is graded Excellent, making it one of the finest presentable examples of this historically loaded piece that a collector is likely to encounter.The convergence of Warhol, The Velvet Underground, and The Mothers of Invention on a single Fillmore bill was a genuinely extraordinary moment, and Wilson's design captures the energy of that collision beautifully. Pieces that connect the two coasts' artistic revolutions of the 1960s are perennially in demand among collectors of both rock memorabilia and pop art history. The Excellent condition means this poster would display magnificently and needs no apologies.One of the most intellectually and historically compelling lots in the auction.Domestic (United States) shipping is included in the purchase price. International shipments will be subject to additional shipping costs, to be invoiced after the auction is completed.
