Several recent blogs over the past year have described in detail the skyrocketing demand of anything related to Chuck Berry since his untimely passing. When that poster also features The Doors one of the most beloved bands in Rock and Roll history you have just a massively desirable item. Add in superb museum quality that is independently verified by CGC and you have a World Class piece of American history.
The BG-99 has been reprinted several times and reprints are widely available however the OP-1 Pre-Concert First Printings are hard to come by and seldom appear at public auction. This lot is just the fourth CGC graded example we have had the pleasure to offer. A previous 9.8 graded piece of this original issue realized $863 earlier this year. CGC certification has added value and expanded the concert posters collecting market tremendously. The availability of these mint posters won't last forever which is why collectors are jumping on lots like this one!
