The super scarce 9.9 CGC Grade appears again in this Victor Moscoso poster announcing a run of Moby Grape/Canned Heat concerts at the Avalon. Moscoso created several amazing collages for the Family Dog and this one is a wonderful example of that technique. Angel winged bikini girls? Interesting sign of the times! This truly is the WONDER poster! In every collectibles market there are collectors where only the VERY BEST will do. The quality of the CGC graded 9.9 original poster exhibited here will always enjoy top demand!


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.
