Item DetailsTitle: BG 62 The Grateful Dead Publishing/Info: BG62 Item Type: "Post Card non-autographed, non-grade" Additional Info/Description: "Pre-concert original print. Artist Wes Wilson. 4 17/32 x 8.
This Wes Wilson creation for a 1967 Grateful Dead concert with Paupers and Collage was printed using a “split fountain” technique. The background of the original varies from green at the top to yellow to pink at the bottom. The art is printed in black ink. The reprint is completely different—it was printed in yellow, gray, and purple on a brown background. The central image is an illustration of a nude woman viewed from the hips up. Around her are several men’s faces. One of the nice touches of this poster is the yin and yang symbol in the woman’s hand. Wilson placed the arrow symbol for male and the plus-sign symbol for female inside the yin and yang, with both symbols containing faces. Many people believe that this—the last poster in this part of the series—was Wilson’s best. By this point he had thoroughly modified the Roller alphabet into his own. Not-to-be-missed is the symbology of the venomous snake with the dollar sign between its fangs.
The original poster comes in two varieties, both of which were printed on white index stock and measure approximately 14?? x 24?.
The Type 1 original was printed using a split-fountain technique. The ink transitions from green at the top to pink at the bottom.
