Original 1st printing 5&1/2 x 8&1/2" concert handbill for the Grateful Dead appearing with the New Riders of the Purple Sage at the Santa Rosa (CA) Fairgrounds on 12/12/1970. Art by Stanley Mouse (portraits) and Timothy D. Dixon (lettering/layout), image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 364 (plate 4.96). Medium-thin flat stock handbill is in BEAUTIFUL near mint (A- to A-/B+) condition; aside from a couple of soft pinch dings scattered along the upper margin/edge (and one or two hiding within the image area), it is an absolutely GORGEOUS example of this late '70 Grateful Dead concert handbill from Northern California.
