Description
WITH A GRADE SOARING AS MUCH AS THE PIG IS
Pink Floyd 1977 Oakland, CA Concert Poster Signed by Randy
Tuten, Graded 9.8 (AOR-4.47). An original first-printing
concert poster for Pink Floyd appearing at the Oakland Coliseum on
Monday and Tuesday nights, May 9 & 10, 1977. This poster's image,
created by Randy Tuten and William Bostedt, has gained iconic
status over the years, easily one of the most popular BG posters of
the 1970's. This specimen has been signed by Tuten and subsequently
graded a sky-high 9.8 Near Mint/Mint by CGC (the Certified Guaranty
Company).This was also known as Floyd's "In the Flesh" tour. Flying pigs became an indelible image for the band, and this poster depicts one beautifully, floating above the clouds & fog of San Francisco Bay. The year 1977 found Floyd on tour supporting Animals, which also depicted a flying pig in a sky of clouds (above a power station). That LP went on to sell 12 million units worldwide. Last year Heritage sold two of these 9.8-graded specimens, and they each went for over $8,000. Measures 19 1/2" x 28". From the David Swartz Concert Poster Collection. COA from Heritage Auctions.
