One of the classic images of the psychedelic era, featuring a "robo-man" running on top of a mushroom.  The appearance of the Grateful Dead has only enhanced the popularity of this poster.

The original/first print poster measures approx.  14" X 22".  On this poster there is a faint, curving line that appears on the poster about 3/4"  below the "D" in "DEAD".  The line is mostly vertical, and is about 1 1/2" in length.  It looks as if there was a hair on the printing plate during the run of first print posters.

The second print poster, an authorized reprint, also measures approx.  14"  X 22".  The aforementioned line does not appear on this poster, which was printed sometime before 1975.

The original postcard, printed prior to the shows, measures approx.  4 1/2" X 7 1/8", and has a calendar of Bill Graham events on the reverse of the card.

A double postcard, measuring approx.  7 1/8" x 9 1/4", was also printed of this image and BG 214.  There is a bulk rate permit on the reverse of the BG 216 image on this card, so any BG 216 card with a bulk rate back has been cut from a double card.
