Original 1st printing 18 x 25&1/2" concert poster for the Grateful Dead appearing with the Robert Cray Band, Strangers with Candy, Tattoo and the Flying Karamazov Brothers at the Oregon Country Fairgrounds in Veneta, OR on 8/28/1982 ("2nd Decadenal Picnic", sponsored by the Springfield Creamery). Designer unknown, image is featured in the Art of Rock on page 376 (plate 4.137). Medium-thin semi-gloss textured stock poster is in excellent (B+) condition; aside from a hint of moisture warp top the paper (primarily concentrated in the upper left corner/quadrant), a couple of light handling dings, a soft bend or two and a whisper of surface wear, it's pretty much as clean/crisp as they come. Very amusing Dead poster from the 10th Anniversary of the 1972 Veneta shows, stream the show HERE; https://archive.org/details/gd82-08-28.sbd.lai.2333.sbefail.shnf
