50 Concert Posters From Famed Ultrasounds Collection on Auction

CHARLOTTE, N.C., August 3, 2020 (Newswire.com) - ​Today, 50 concert posters from the famed Ultrasounds Collection go up for auction with ComicConnect. These posters, designed by renowned concert poster artist Mike King span almost two decades of music history. The Ultrasounds Collection, owned by GoCollect Founder Jeff Meyer, was purchased as a way to build a one-of-a-kind price guide for graded concert posters. 

“This collection is a fantastic representation of several decades of music from the Pacific Northwest including punk, grunge, metal and hip-hop. We are proud to partner with ComicConnect - a long-standing, trusted source for investment-grade pop culture collectibles on this auction,” Meyer stated.

Some of the musical groups in the auction include Anthrax & Public Enemy, Ice T, Melvins, and Red Hot Chili Peppers.

All bids will start at $1, with no reserve. Winning bidders will also receive a free download of the Mike King book, Maximum Plunder. Fifty percent of the final bid amount from each of the 50 CGC certified will be donated to Second Harvest Food Bank of Metrolina, who share GoCollect’s vision that hunger is a solvable problem that can be fixed. The contents of the auction can be viewed at comicconnect.com here.

GoCollect has partnered with Certified Guaranty Company®  (CGC®) to professionally grade and encapsulate thousands of posters from this collection to build the concert poster price guide. The price guide will be released by GoCollect in the coming months.

About ComicConnect

ComicConnect's mission is to offer vintage comic book, original art and memorabilia buyers and sellers an easy-to-use alternative to consignment websites, auction houses and "feeBay".

Paramount to all of this is the money ComicConnect puts back into your pocket. There are no "buyer fees" extracted from the items you purchase, forcing you to pay a lower price to the seller to compensate for the loss. There are no exorbitant sellers' fees to take a cut out of what money the seller receives either. For more information, visit comicconnect.com.
