This beautiful design by Mouse and Kelley for the 78th poster in the Avalon series is simply 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. Another 9.9-graded example of this poster sold for $6,000.00 over two years ago in our auction!
