We have here for you a very special original first printing poster for a very early show at the Grande Ballroom. This is only the THIRD CGC Graded example we have offered and it's tied for the FINEST condition we have handled. It's just the 5th poster in the Grande series. Compared to the San Francisco Ballrooms which at this time were printing posters in quantities of 1500 or more the print run for Grande posters was around 500. Very few of these early original posters exist today in ANY condition! In August 2018 a same graded 9.6 example realized $1725 in our auction.
