##MUSICGD2054 - Grateful Dead Car Window Tour Sticker/Decal - Skeletons Dancing Under a Rainbow and Moon

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. Vintage 4 1/2" diameter Grateful Dead sticker/decal. These are high quality art decals that were made for car windows. I peeled the cover off for the picture. They are in mint condition and can still be used. This one is from around the late 1980s and has an artist signature Jeremy. It features a skeletons dancing under a rainbow and night sky.

These Grateful Dead stickers/decals are old tour merchandise. I found them wrapped in plastic in boxes in master cases. They came from a distributor who sold them to tour vendors. The condition is pristine and they still will work as a car decal or window/mirror sticker. We found them packed away in storage boxes dated 1992 (many are older than that) and 1995 (year Jerry Garcia died). They are high quality artist renderings of Grateful Dead themes. Back in the day, the Dead did not monitor copyrights and that sort of thing, and in fact, at one point encouraged artists to do designs. The LA times explained it well “The Grateful Dead was famously lax in enforcing it’s intellectual property rights and trademarks, allowing fans to create their own designs using the band’s expansive iconography”. Since there was no serious monitoring or much concern back then, a lot of up and coming artists got involved in designing them. This is how some of them got their starts. Some of the sticker artists who designed these stickers went on to produce official licensed works for the Grateful Dead and other famous groups. These stickers include some by now famous designers including David Opie, and others. These 1995 and older stickers are very hard to find anymore.

##MUSICBP1182 - Rare Pete Rose Hit #4192 OTTO Laminated Pass for Stag Honoring Rose when Snubbed by Hall of Fame - As low as $5 each

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. These are really something. Vintage large 4 1/2" tall laminated pass for the February 19, 1991 Sports Stag honoring Pete Rose at the Western Hills (Cincinnati) Country Club (Pete went to Western Hills High School). These are extremely rare and have an interesting history. They were made to look like a baseball card with a printed Pete Rose signature and #4192 (His 4,192nd hit made him baseball's all time hit leader). Here's the rest of the story. On January 7th, 1991, Pete was release from prison for tax evasion. He had to serve the remainder of his time doing public service, but was allowed to make public appearances. On February 4th, 1991 the board of directors voted unanimously to bar him from appearing on Baseball Hall of Fame ballots (he got write in votes anyway, but not enough). So, on February 19th, here in Cincinnati, they held this stag in Pete's honor. It had been scheduled previously, but was used as a support Pete and down with the Baseball commissioner platform. These are a part of baseball history (whether you agree with it or not), and every serious baseball collector should have one. Excellent unused condition.

#TY574 - Pair of Sex Detector Novelties - Japan

You get the pair for $2.50. Vintage sex detector novelties. The one with the illustration on it says "Instantly Indicates the Sex of Humans, Animals, or Insects" "Wonderful Fun-Maker" "A Scientific Instrument Better Than the Ouija Board" "Circular motion Female" "Forward and Backward Male". The illustrated package is about 3" wide and contain a small tin bobber on a string that you dangled. The larger package is about 3 3/4" all and contain a larger tin bobber on a string (pictured), but no instructions (even though it says they are inside!). Both packages are marked "Japan" and are circa 1950. We had a few of these years ago, and they were very popular. Unsold old store stock we recently recovered from a warehouse in Northeast Ohio. Packages show typical minor paper aging. Parts inside are like new.
