##MUSICGD2047 - Grateful Dead Car Window Tour Sticker/Decal - Pictures a Crab with a Skull Body Pierced by a Sword

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. Vintage 5 1/4" tall 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 1990. It pictures a crab that has a skull for a body with a sword piercing it.

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 older stickers are very hard to find anymore.

##MUSICBP0188 - 1995 MEGAFORCE Records Santa Cloth OTTO Aftershow Pass

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image of both sides of the pass. Vintage very large 4 1/2" tall Cloth OTTO "After Show" backstage pass from a MEGAFORCE Records Christmas event. They are from 1995 and have a very colorful picture of a snowman holding a guitar. The OTTO mark is located on the back. MEGAFORCE records were industry mavericks. They went after the metal bands when the other labels weren't paying attention. They were founded in 1982, and signed Metallica that year when no other label was interested. It was a big break for both of them. They went on to sign Anthrax, The Black Crowes, Johnny Winter, Cyndi Lauper and many many famous artists. They are best know in the metal community where they are the go to label. Excellent unused condition.
