We are pleased to present this early, rare Grateful Dead handbill for the FIRST time in our auction! This attractive piece was created to advertise The Grateful Dead's June 1969 performance at the Convention Center Arena in Fresno, California. Aum and Sanpaku played as support. This handbill rarely surfaces at all, and remains in shockingly good condition! This was quite early in the Dead's career, a few months before they would release their first live album, "Live/Dead". What a treasure!
