This poster is signed in black ink by the late legendary Jerry Garcia!!!

This classic Alton Kelley poster was created for what would end up a cancelled show in London before the band’s historic 1978 Egypt concerts.  It features the same super popular image as the Egypt poster but has the cancelled Rainbow Theater information. Just 325 pieces of this poster were produced!

The bottom line is this poster has it all signed by a legendary artist historic and famous art one of the world's most popular bands ultra low issue number and super clean...far cleaner than the numerical grade would lead you to believe. See details below.

This is the second of two Jerry Garcia signed examples of this lot that were consigned by the same person. There are NO more and the previous example sold for $3749.00 on 11/2/17.
