In every collectibles market there are collectors that only want to own the very best quality that is available and they are willing to go to any length and pay any price to obtain it. These collectors understand that when you own the best you are in the driver's seat when the time finally comes to sell because there is THE BEST and then everything else. Collectors of CGC graded concert posters understand that a poster must be virtually perfect to earn the highly coveted 9.8 grade. CGC assigns just a small percentage of posters the 9.8 grade as evidenced by this auction. For a poster to receive a monumental 9.9 it must exhibit extraordinary eye appeal that jumps right out and grabs the grader's attention. In every other collectibles market items that are distinguished in this way trade for MANY multiples of the next grade down. While premiums for concert posters graded 9.9 are substantial and growing we believe the market for these specimens often referred to as "Top Pops" (pops is short for population) represents excellent value at today's market levels.
