A 1966 music poster for Grateful Dead.
About The Grateful Dead
Grateful Dead fans, known as Deadheads, followed the band from city to city for decades. The Grateful Dead formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1965 and became famous for long, improvised live shows. Music posters became collectable as fans began keeping tour and gig posters as souvenirs. The late 1960s saw a boom in psychedelic poster art, with swirling hand-drawn lettering and clashing colours. The original dates from 1966. Music posters have long borrowed from the visual style of each era, from psychedelia to punk.
Styling this Grateful Dead poster
Easy to style, this Grateful Dead poster suits modern and traditional rooms alike. At 24×36″ it becomes a statement piece, while 11×14″ or 12×18″ fits shelves, desks and gallery walls. A black or antique-gold frame suits this Grateful Dead poster well and keeps the focus on the image. Build a gallery wall around this Grateful Dead poster: add two or three smaller prints that echo its colours and keep the gaps to 2–3 inches. For the most natural view, place the centre of this Grateful Dead poster at eye level, around 57 inches (145 cm) high.
