Grab - Antiques Roadshow guest bursts into tears at valuation of dead brother's vintage Rock & Roll posters: 'He loved them, and I love them too' (Image: PBS) An Antiques Roadshow guest was overcome with emotion when she discovered the true value of her late brother's treasured rock and roll posters. Her brother had amassed an impressive collection of posters over the years, and she brought 47 of them to be valued by expert James Supp. These particular posters, featuring iconic artists like Jimi Hendrix and The Grateful Dead, dated back to the period between 1967 and 1969.

She explained that her brother, who sadly passed away 28 years ago, used to send money for postage to renowned rock concert promoter Bill Graham and the legendary venue Fillmore West in exchange for posters. Remarkably, the posters had been carefully stored in a box for the past three decades, preserving them in excellent condition. The expert revealed that the posters were extremely valuable, particularly a Jimi Hendrix poster featuring a striking flying eyeball design.



James pointed out the placement of 'Bill Graham' and the poster number, indicating that it was a first edition. Created by the renowned artist Rick Griffin in the late 1960s, these posters are considered some of the most iconic rock and roll posters of all time. function loadOvpScript(){let el=document.
