The Woodstock Music and Arts Festival is legendary. It represented the peak of the 1960's music scene. In many ways it also signified the end of the era. The poster for the event is iconic and deserves a place in every collection. The artist Arnold Skolnick signed a small edition from a stack of unused posters. This signed print is #13/144.

Woodstock was a notorious Grateful Dead performance. They were a band that rarely came through when faced with great expectation and hype. At Woodstock they had to play during the rain and were getting shocked by a poorly grounded set up. As a result Bob Weir was having a bad trip. It did not go well for the band that night.
