13 days of music at the Fillmore West was a tall order for BG245. Singer achieved the goal with this large triptych and flanked the center collage with the facts. The fare featured British and American groups, and the collage and poster are the national colors.
This oversized poster was only printed once before the concert. There is significant inking variation throughout the run, particularly noticeable in the blue background, which ranges from nearly aqua to dark blue. It measures 21 1/4" x 27 15/16".
The 2nd printing is on uncoated matte stock and has "W 2021" in the lower right hand margin. It was printed in 2021 by the Wolfgang's in a 100 copy run. This reprint measures 20" x 27".
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.
