Description

Positive and negative spaces competed in the lettering of Greg Irons' scream-personified poster for The Move, Cold Blood and Albert King at the Fillmore West. The advent of Irons, and contemporary artist Lee Conklin on the poster scene, made the work of earlier artists Wes Wilson and Bonnie MacLean seem positively tame by comparison.

Before the dawn of computers and bar codes, Bill Graham Presents printed their own concert tickets, many of which are now considered exceptional works of art in their own right. Small facsimiles or derivations of the show's promotional posters, they were typically color-coded to indicate multi-night engagements and represent a bygone era of extended, one-venue engagements by major performers. So that Bill could reconcile sales each night, patrons purchased tickets at the venue box office and handed them right back over at the door, thus ending up in the archive as mint condition concert tickets. We may occasionally and in select cases offer for sale one-of-a-kind, extremely rare and valuable concert tickets in less than mint condition.
