A CGC 10 Supergrade! Here we have a beautiful 1989 original poster designed by Frank Kozik for the Red Hot Chili Peppers at the Fillmore. Additional acts Primus and Mary's Danish were supporting these shows in San Francisco. The colorful image exhibits all of the wonderful traits Kozik was implementing into his designs in those days.
Artist Frank Kozik got his start gaining popularity for designing posters around the Austin area in the late 80’s and early 90’s. His abilities grew and he has since become a member of the Stuckism art movement. His vast collection of beautiful work includes bands like Nirvana Pearl Jam Soundgarden and Stone Temple Pilots.
The experienced collectors we talk to are 100% convinced that posters that have somehow miraculously earned a 10.0 grade from CGC are exceedingly undervalued at current market levels. Their reasoning is simple but firmly grounded in reality. In every other certified collectibles marketplace it’s COMMONPLACE for the absolute “Best of the Best” to command premiums of 10x 20x or even 50x the next grade down. These types of premiums are universal and longstanding in regards to the values of rare coins comic books baseball cards paper money postage stamps etc.
Because independent authentication and grading of concert posters is still in its early days premiums have not yet approached these types of levels. But make no mistake premiums ARE growing as collectors from other fields are flowing into the marketplace and snapping up what they consider to be MASSIVE bargains. This is an opportunity not to be missed!
