This LARGE poster is an UNCUT Printer's Proof - featuring the poster and handbills - from the Mardi Gras in the final year of Garcia's life. This example is unique as it is printed off center. The Grateful Dead's annual Mardi Gras celebration was a real treat for their loyal fans. The tradition began in the 1980's and was held in Oakland first at the Kaiser and later at the Coliseum. With less hype than the New Years Run the Band generally were at the top of their game. The crowd were also treated to a New Orleans Mardi Gras parade complete with floats and revelers. This is a very nice and increasingly valuable late era Dead relic.
