IF YOU CAN'T AFFORD THE REAL DEAL - Skeleton And Roses, Avalon Ballroom, September 1966, FD026. This reproduction is of a poster for a dance concert at the Avalon Ballroom, San Francisco, on 16-17 September 1966. Artists billed are: The Grateful Dead, and Oxford Circle. The poster was designed by Stanley Mouse and Alton Kelly who took the illustration, originally created by Edmund Sullivan, from The Rubaiyat Of Omar Khayyam. The skeleton and roses image became iconic for the Grateful Dead who adopted it as an unofficial trade mark and used it as the basis for the cover of their self-titled 1971 double LP. The record has now become known by the unofficial title of Skull and Roses. This print measures approx. 10 x 14
