Image may not exactly match item shipped.
Classical drawings and cool cats at rest were Singer's choices for those giants among Blues players, B.B. King and Albert King, who played together for four nights at the Fillmore West.
The poster was only printed once before the concert. It employs the "split fountain technique" and ranges from yellow on the left to pink on the right. It measures 14" x 21 3/4".
The 2nd printing is on coated stock and has "W 2021" in the lower right hand margin. It was printed in 2021 by Wolfgang's in a 250 copy run. This reprint measures 14" x 22".
During his Fillmore era, from 1969-1971, Singer created more posters for Graham than any other artist. Singer's posters are notable for his use of collage, incorporating thousands of images clipped from magazines spanning several decades. He developed a format that included a stunning variety of lettering styles, applying them in close relation to the theme or subject of a poster.
