This Week from the Vault
Fillmore West
This week marks the 40th anniversary of the opening of the Fillmore West. After the assassinations of Martin Luther King and Bobby Kennedy, race riots ignited in the Fillmore District of San Francisco, as they did in many places across the country. Bill Graham had to close the original Fillmore Auditorium and move to a safer location. He found it in the old Carousel Ballroom. More than twice the size of the original venue, the Fillmore West became a Mecca for music’s West Coast scene. Check out the posters of the Fillmore West here at the Vault.

This Week from the Vault

Family Dog
The Family Dog was a loose collective of free spirits started by Alton Kelley and later managed by Chet Helms, who put on rock dances at the Avalon Ballroom more or less continually from 1965 to 1970. These almost-nightly events, like those hosted at the Fillmore, were more than conventional concerts; they were social gatherings with plenty of dance, music, and light. Wolfgang’s Vault has one of the largest collections of original Family Dog poster art in the world.


Big Ticket Auction
The Big Ticket auctions for this month are now live! Included is an original Family Dog poster from Wes Wilson’s personal collection; a 1967 Grateful Dead poster for Abe Lincoln’s birthday bash at the Fillmore; original Alton Kelley artwork for the Grateful Dead; a 1969 Jimi Hendrix poster for an Indianapolis show; an amazing BG poster set which includes 289 posters; and a Rick Griffin poster for the Who at the Palladium. All six items are extremely rare and sought after. Check out our eBay Store to get a piece of the action.
