Another crisp 9.9 graded original Bill Graham poster in this auction and the FINEST CGC example of this issue we have ever offered! Classic names like Ravi Shankar Butterfield Blues Band and Buddy Miles join the Incredible String Band in the lineup for this run of shows at the legendary Fillmore West. In every collectibles market there is feverish demand for those few one of a kind posters that are the top 1% of the top 1%. Here is your chance to acquire one for yourself! 

The experienced collectors we talk to are 100% convinced that posters that have somehow miraculously earned a 9.9 or 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 it’s 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. We first discussed this opportunity in our blog dated 8/19/16 and recently updated it on 6/18/18. We highly recommend you read each blog carefully if you are interested in participating in this exciting segment of the marketplace.
