Original 1st printing 16&5/8 x 21&7/8" concert poster for the Grateful Dead appearing with the New Riders of the Purple Sage at Hill Auditorium on the campus of the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, MI on 12/15/1971. Art by (and SIGNED in black sharpie by) Gary Grimshaw, image is featured in the Art of Rock book on page 393 (plate 4.187). This is the locally-distributed version with a ticket outlet strip along the bottom border. Medium-thick vellum stock poster is in excellent (B+) condition; light handling wear, a thin 1" diagonal bend in the top left corner, a tiny tear, a small crease and a couple of edge nicks along the upper right margin/edge dings, a stray pinch ding or two and a thin bend in the bottom center margin, otherwise fine. A very bright-looking ARTIST-SIGNED example of this classic Grimshaw Grateful Dead image WITH the ticket strip along the bottom.
