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.

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image of both sides of the pass. You get the pair pictured for $3.00 (that's $1.50 each). This is a vintage 4 1/4" tall OTTO backstage Pass from around 1989. The Sharon, Lois, & Bram's Elephant show was a Canadian show that aired in 1984.  These passes were for the Elephant Show Live in Concert, and has a "Malt-O-Meal Hot Cereal" advertisement. This show was one of the highest rated programs for preschoolers in its time, beating Sesame Street, and Barney & Friends.

Click the picture to see a larger more detailed image. Marked "Button-up" and "Copyright 1989 Don't Mean Nothing Tours." around the rim. These licensed types are very scarce, yet easy to identify by the licensing info on the side of the button. Most of the musical pinbacks that you see for sale on Ebay or other online sites are reproductions. These licensed types retail for much higher prices. We uncovered them very recently in an old vending warehouse here locally. Excellent unused condition.
