This beautiful design by Mouse and Kelley for the 78th poster in the Avalon series is simple stunning. The design is based on a sculpture by Adolph Weinman a famous early Twentieth Century artist whose name also appears in the "artist" credit on the CGC slab at the top of the poster. The model's name posing as the angel was Audrey Munson who also had a movie career. Her image exhibited on a rich blue background is incredibly tasteful. Another Avalon poster that needs to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. This example is tied for the FINEST we have ever handled of this issue! In March another 9.8 graded example reached $960 in our auction.
