Description

The Who Fillmore/Winterland Concert Poster BG-108 (Bill Graham Presents, 1968). Lee Conklin's surrealistic image of humanoid "butterflies" (with ears in place of wings) makes for one of the more memorable posters from this series. Opening the show was jazz legend Cannonball Adderly and New York band the Vagrants, featuring guitarist Leslie West. The Vagrants were known as the first band to destroy their instruments at the end of their show, a gimmick soon picked up by the Who -- maybe at this show! This is a second printing poster, measuring 14" x 21", and in Very Good+ condition.
