The Matrix a small San Francisco club in the Marina produced some of the finest concert advertising art of the era.  The most recognized from the series are Victor Moscoso's Neon Rose posters. In addition to those striking posters there are a wonderfully creative selection of handbills created by lesser known artists. These smaller pieces are both beautiful and scarce. 

It’s no secret that handbills are far easier to counterfeit than posters. CGC authentication has brought much needed integrity and stability to this very popular segment of the marketplace. Finally you can acquire rare and scarce original handbills with confidence knowing you are getting exactly what you pay for! We haven't seen one of these since our April 2017 CGC auction when we had a 9.6 graded example realize $357. We may not see another one for years. Don't let this one get away!
