The World Famous BG-75 is one of the KEY issues in the Bill Graham Fillmore Series. It features spectacular super popular art for one of the most beloved bands in the history of Rock and Roll. The Doors enjoy huge international interest and demand that dwarfs the worldwide interest for most other bands of the era. That's why we receive requests for this issue on a weekly basis and as such it is one of the most liquid Blue Chip issues you can acquire from this era.

 

This lot will without a doubt represent one of the finest values in this auction. Why? Because it is ridiculously conservatively graded. Gem mint examples of this issue graded 9.6 or higher have sold for over $10 000 at auction. The 8.5 example offered here is a great opportunity to acquire the same GEM eye appeal without paying the astronomical prices what the high grade examples command. 

 

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. This poster is SUPER CLEAN AND PINHOLE FREE and is sure to please the fussiest condition freak.
