Jimi Hendrix Flying Eyeball Bill Graham Fillmore
1968 Concert Poster

LIMITED EDITION 4TH PRINTING
Jimi Hendrix and the Flying Eyeball are images indelibly linked in the psychedelic poster art of the late Rick Griffin. Griffin discovered The Eyeball, in a much more benign form, in the 1950s auto detailing art of California pinstriper Von Dutch and reworked it over time to become the winged, bloodshot figure parting a ring of fire with serpent-like tentacles. The highlighted lettering, vivid color, and complicated imagery reflect Griffin's attention to precise details and the influence of Indian lore on his work.

The poster, called "BG105," (features the famous "flying eyeball" design by Rick Griffin; Bill Graham's archives, Griffin appropriated the image from the famed California auto detailer Von Dutch and added his own touches to reflect the psychedelic times.
