An ultra-scarce issue from a run of very early & special shows the Grateful Dead played at the legendary Matrix in late 66! The soundboard recording circulates from the final night of the run and is a classic among collectors as an early Dead favorite. There is a wonderful expanded 15 minute version of “Viola Lee Blues” from the 12/1 show along with Jerry’s historical statement in-between songs: “This is the last set of our last appearance on a Thursday at the Matrix” giving the hint that the venue was closing soon.
We at PAE have rarely seen this poster come through our doors. Issues from the Matrix were printed in extremely low quantites. Always in top demand in ANY condition this poster represents a special opportunity for the historic Dead material collector. The Matrix was a tiny club that held just 150. How many original first printing posters could they have possibly produced? An amazing collectible!
