This poster is signed by one of the artists, Stanley Mouse!
This poster has also been authenticated on the reverse by the Godfather of 1960s Psychedelic Concert Posters, Eric King! The lightly penciled inscription represents what concert poster authentication looked like prior to CGCs authentication of these items (See photo).
Presenting an original example of this first printing poster in our auction! The FD-33 is one of the most sought-after Grateful Dead posters in the Avalon Series. This striking yet simple design by Mouse and Kelley utilizes the Family Dog logo in striking Green and Red. A very tiny fraction of the original issuance has survived the past 55+ years!
Like movie stars and rock bands, certain concert posters have a special "IT FACTOR" that transcends the hobby and captures the imagination of all market participants. This lot is one of those types of items and goes a long way toward explaining why this poster always enjoys top demand when it surfaces.
