AUCTION - AOR 2.169 - Grateful Dead - 1968 Poster - Carousel Ballroom - Near Mint

We are pleased to offer this original San Francisco concert poster for the Grateful Dead and Quicksilver Messenger Service, performing at the Carousel Ballroom on Wednesday, January 17, 1968. This iconic piece was created to coincide with Benjamin Franklin’s 262nd birthday, featuring a unique and bold artistic concept by the renowned poster artist "Gut"—a Hells Angel and close associate of the Grateful Dead. Gut’s design daringly lets the centerpiece image of Benjamin Franklin carry the entire aesthetic of the poster, a creative choice that has become a celebrated hallmark of the era.

Measuring 15 3/4" x 19 7/8" and in Near Mint condition, this is a rare opportunity for collectors to acquire a truly distinctive piece of Grateful Dead history.
