About The Grateful Dead
Grateful Dead posters and album art, from skeletons and roses to dancing bears, are central to psychedelic design. Grateful Dead fans, known as Deadheads, followed the band from city to city for decades. Many concert posters listed several bands, capturing who shared the stage on a given night. The Grateful Dead formed in the San Francisco Bay Area in 1965 and became famous for long, improvised live shows. This poster advertised a 1973 show. Promoters like Bill Graham and Chet Helms commissioned a new poster for almost every weekend of shows.

For fans of Grateful Dead, this 1973 poster is a striking way to bring live-music history home. At 24×36″ it becomes a statement piece, while 11×14″ or 12×18″ fits shelves, desks and gallery walls. Finish this Grateful Dead concert poster with a black or antique-gold frame for a clean, gallery-style look.
