This poster is featured in “The Art of Rock” Plate #2.24 and was also featured as the cover art for the third Grateful Dead album. The demand for this poster far exceeds the tiny available supply and that’s why it has appreciated steadily over the years. We see absolutely no reason why this trend will not continue and in fact accelerate with all of the fresh collectors and funds now entering the marketplace! A fantastic opportunity for the collector willing to act when the opportunity presents itself.

Perfect signed copies of this poster have reached as high as $7500 at public auction. This piece which is unsigned and exhibiting a few tiny imperfections should be available at a meaningful discount. Please note these tiny imperfections are noted for accuracy and are only evident upon super close inspection. These include two light tape pulls on THE BACK of the poster. The overall eye appeal is the same as a DEAD MINT 97 example.
