This commemorative poster is signed and numbered 276/500 in pencil by the artist the late great Wes Wilson!
The FD-12 is a LEGENDARY issue of unsurpassed historical significance because it is the very FIRST time the image of a skeleton was associated with the Grateful Dead. In 2008 the late great Wes Wilson hand screen printed this massively sized commemorative limited edition on fine paper which he numbered and signed in pencil! There were only 500 of these huge and amazing pieces produced and distributed by Rhino Records! The print run from Rhino also included other popular titles like FD-5 FD-26 and FD-14.
A special limited edition issue like this is unique and allows new collectors to have a chance to acquire this classic image one of the most popular 1960s concert poster images in a beautiful LARGE format size for a far lower price than the pre-concert original FD-12 printings can realize when they surface. Best of all it's SIGNED by the artist!
