This poster is signed in silver colored ink by the artist Dennis Larkins!
The finest quality CGC graded example of this issue we've ever auctioned! This killer design by artist Dennis Larkins has a terrific southwest motif. The concert in Santa Fe was from the early eighties when the Dead were gaining huge momentum and were selling out entire tours. Dennis Larkins is best remembered for his Grateful Dead Radio City poster.
Our records show that there are 2 different size variations of this Santa Fe poster in circulation and both were Original Pre-Concert First Printings. The majority of them had the ticket outlet information trimmed off the bottom and were offered for sale at the show (like this OP-2 example here). Best of all this Museum Quality specimen is SIGNED by the artist!
