This lot will be accompanied by a Letter of Provenance attesting to the fact that it resided in the historic Early '66 Time Capsule Collection one of the most exciting and important concert poster discoveries of the past 20 years.
We're pleased to offer the collecting community the very FIRST CGC Graded example of this Original CARDBOARD Peace Rock poster to ever appear in our auction. This is the FIRST PEACE ROCK event held at the Fillmore!
What makes this cardboard piece IMPORTANT is it exhibits the original lineup including The Grateful Dead and Mystery Trend two bands who both cancelled and were replaced later by The Great Society and Big Brother! Peter Bailey did the calligraphy on this piece.
Many collectors believe that posters graded 8.5 by CGC represent the best value in the marketplace today. See our blog dated 1/31/18 to learn why demand is currently skyrocketing.
Estimating the value of this ultra rare poster is all but impossible with no previous sales record in our auction. The collecting community will be watching closely to see what value the marketplace attaches to this piece of history at this time.
