Here we have an extremely rare proof poster advertising the Grateful Dead appearing at Giants Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey in September 1978. This one of a kind Test proof exhibits corrections that were made by hand prior to the event. The "3" in September is crossed out - the concert was officially scheduled for September 2nd. Willie Nelson listed in support played the show, however Waylon Jennings did not appear and was replaced by NRPS. Subsequent posters printed to advertise this concert included the corrections (the correct date and NRPS replacing Jennings). This is the FIRST and only example of this unique test proof poster we have ever seen!

 

Condition Details: Mounted on board. Ink writing (corrections) on front.
