PAE is pleased to present the very FIRST CGC graded specimen of this poster to EVER appear at public auction!

 

A Pink Floyd collectible for the ages! Original First Printing. Superb Condition. CGC Grading and Authentication. Incredible Artwork. TOP Band! This exquisite poster literally has it all! We are pleased to present the FIRST CGC Graded example of this issue to ever appear in our auction!

 

Artist Arlene Owseichik designed a fabulous image for the group's run of shows at Hughes Stadium & Oakland Stadium in April 1988. These concerts were part of Pink Floyd's World Tour supporting the "A Momentary Lapse of Reason" album release. It was the first project and tour without original member Roger Waters who left Pink Floyd several years prior.

 

Pink Floyd is one of those 1960's bands that has widespread worldwide appeal and fan base. Because the band was so huge a relatively small amount of concert posters were issued as the band didn't really have trouble selling tickets. As such their posters are hotly contested at auction and we expect this lot to be no exception. This jaw-dropping Bill Graham poster features SUPERB Museum Quality Condition! 

 

Everyone knows that the most exciting and lucrative time to acquire something is AT THE BEGINNING ON THE GROUND FLOOR. For example the best time to have bought shares in Facebook Apple Amazon or Tesla was at the beginning at the Initial Public Offering of these companies. And so it goes for art and collectibles too. To be sure the best time to have bought a Batman #1 was when they were originally offered at the newsstand. The best time to have bought a Mickey Mantle or Mike Trout rookie card was over the counter when they were released.

 

The lot offered here presents ANOTHER SPECIAL GROUND FLOOR OPPORTUNITY. This is the VERY FIRST CGC graded example of this poster to be offered ANYWHERE. Here’s your chance to get INDEPENDENTLY AUTHENTICATED AND GRADED MUSEUM QUALITY ART at a rock bottom bargain basement price. All of us regret not participating in the opportunities outlined above don’t let the chance to participate in what many consider to be the most lucrative collectibles opportunity in the world pass you buy RIGHT NOW!
