This poster is signed in black ink by the artist Lee Conklin!


This Grateful Dead poster from the pen of Lee Conklin is drippy and surreal as is much of this artist’s fine work. This November 1968 poster is a favorite among Dead collectors and Conklin fans alike. The example offered here shines bright with its 9.8 museum quality condition and best of all it's SIGNED by the artist! In November 2018 a same graded signed example reached $460 in our auction. More and more collectors are coming into the fold with the knowledge that artist signatures add a whole other dimension to their treasures. Read our blog dated 1/20/18 where we discuss the skyrocketing demand for signed material such as this lot!
