Description

Grateful Dead "Greatful Dead" Avalon Concert Poster FD-22 (Family Dog, 1966). It was early on in the Dead's long strange trip when this rare poster was printed -- note the unusual spelling of the band's name! Joining Jerry Garcia and company was Sopwith Camel. Designers Alton Kelly and Stanley Mouse added a distinctive touch by including a nice pen and ink portrait of the Frankenstein Monster among the graphics. Mouse has signed the poster in ink, to the right of our old pal Frankie. This is the variant first printing measuring 14.25" x 20"; other than some light corner creases, it remains in Near Mint condition.
