Here we have the FIRST 9.9 CGC Graded example of this Family Dog issue to appear in our auction and it's the FINEST QUALITY original frist printing specimen we've offered! The FD-85 features Long Island's early psych band Vanilla Fudge. The group's original members recorded five albums together between 1967–69 before disbanding. When Led Zeppelin first toured the United States in early 1969 they opened for the Vanilla Fudge at some of their shows.

 

Last year a lower graded 9.8 example brought $1020 in our auction. This beautiful 9.9 example here is unique and should really generate bidder attention. In every collectibles market there are many collectors that will only be satisfied with owning items in top condition. The 9.9 museum quality of this poster exemplifies what they are looking for. Diamonds such as these won't be around forever!
