About

This poster features the first usage of the image of a skeleton to promote The Grateful Dead. The skeleton would become an important piece of Grateful Dead iconography when Stanley Mouse and Alton Kelley created the legendary Skeleton and Roses piece a few months later. The unique history of this poster puts it in high demand.
