(ARTFIXdaily.com) BALTIMORE, Md. - A museum quality specimen of the legendary Grateful Dead Skeleton and Roses FD-26 concert poster is the expected star lot in an online auction hosted by Psychedelic Art Exchange (www.concertpostergallery.com). The poster has been independently authenticated and graded 9.8 by CGC, the finest quality CGC graded example ever to cross the auction block.
Bidding is now open and ends Thursday, May 16th, at 9 pm Eastern time. The poster is widely expected to exceed the world record price of $50,600 realized for a CGC graded 9.4 specimen that was also auctioned off by Psychedelic Art Exchange in a prior auction, on August 9th, 2018.
