This special artist's proof poster is signed in pencil by the artist, David Byrd!
We are happy to offer this beautiful, commemorative Jimi Hendrix Experience poster for the FIRST TIME in our auction! Back in the day, artist David Byrd created the original celebrated Art of Rock plate 2.90 for Hendrix and the famed Fillmore East in 1968, and it was the first and only time Hendrix performed at the venue with the Experience. It has remained one of the most requested Hendrix posters of all time. You all know it well.
This 2017 special edition print with a new design and bright bold colors was produced by Byrd as an Artist's Proof, and SIGNED by the legendary artist himself! Small runs of artist proof / signed material like this lot will always be one of the major keys to the kingdom in the world of collecting rare trophies. More and more collectors are coming into the fold with the knowledge that artist signatures add a whole other dimension to their treasures! Read our blog dated 1/20/18 where we discuss the skyrocketing demand for signed material such as this lot!
