1966 Dead posters always enjoy huge demand and this is no exception! This fantastic early and hand rendered poster from a small Northern California club transports the viewer back in time to the humble beginnings of the cultural phenomena that was to become the Grateful Dead.  This super scarce poster shows up on two different paper types white and yellow. This is the scarcer white version.

This is the FIRST CGC graded example to appear at public auction!

We have previously auctioned one other example that was of comparable quality that was NOT CGC graded that we graded PAE 93 that brought $3749.00 on 12/11/14.
