A collector walks through Wes Wilson's non-concert poster work

Music-memorabilia collector Pete Howard, of PosterCentral, narrates a five-minute survey of psychedelic posters Wes Wilson designed in 1966 that were not made to advertise concerts. Wilson's lettering, developed for Fillmore and Avalon dance bills, became the visual signature of the San Francisco scene. The video is a collector's commentary rather than archival footage.
