A HIGH-GRADE CGC, PERFECT 10! 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 and more. Independent authentication and grading of concert posters is still in its early days but premiums ARE growing as collectors from other fields are flowing into this marketplace. This lot is an opportunity not to be missed! 

 

Artist Harry Rossit designed a fabulous image for this lively New Years Eve concert featuring Nirvana. The Gods of Grunge had just released their album In Utero, which clearly inspired Rossit's poster design. We've noticed a recent climb in interest lately for concert material showcasing this iconic band. 

 

Back in June 2022, we auctioned another rare, top graded CGC 10 example of this poster for $2,400.00! We haven't seen another pass through our doors until now!
