Bill Walton Personally Owned Vintage Grateful Dead Fillmore Handbill Display

Bill Walton Personally Owned Vintage Grateful Dead Fillmore Handbill Display. From the personal collection of basketball legend and one of the Grateful Dead's most famous friends/fans: Bill Walton. This professionally matted and framed display features three vintage handbills from concerts at the Fillmore West in San Francisco, CA.

Bill Walton's stamped signature is on the back of the frame. The display consists of three vintage handbills. 1968 Canned Heat, Gordon Lightfoot, and Cold Blood handbill. 1968 GRATEFUL DEAD, The Who, JAMES COTTON, ALBERT COLLINS, & many more handbill.

1969 Paul Butterfield Blues Band and Mike Bloomfield & Friends handbill. (See pics as statement of condition) Some signs of wear from age and from being on display, some light fading and holes from staples from when they were originally used for promoting these concerts. Overall each handbill still looks very good and they display very well. Comes with proof of authenticity including paperwork from original sale and copy of certificate of authenticity from the Walton Family.

A very meaningful piece in the life of Bill Walton. The Grateful Dead were a huge part of his life and he was good friends with the band. Bill Walton first saw the Grateful Dead in 1967 and became a lifelong fan.

This display features three original pieces from the era when Bill Walton first became interested in the Dead and in San Francisco counter culture. And some of the few pieces from this era that he had as part of his personal collection.
