" Dead Shirts from the Entire Post-Garcia Era !!  Completely Eye-Catching ! ... & Entirely-Amazing !! -- Awesome !!!

Grateful Dead Fans !!  Three-Cheers for This-One ! ... Right ?!  As I'm sure willing to betcha that This-One is one that you " Haven't " Ever Seen !!  One of the Coolest-of-the-Cool ! - Raddest-of-the-Rad ! -- and Rarest-of-the-Rare ! ... of the " Post-Garcia Era ".  With this one being a " Very-Rare ! " Grateful Dead Merchandising / Jurek International Grafix ( GDM, Inc. / Jurek Intl. ) Issue - from 1996 !  Now ( Amazingly ?!? ) here-today - clocking in now here today at close to 30-Years Old !  As my-goodness ... Time does Fly !  As what was I even doing back in '96 ?! - heck, as the first thing that comes to my-mind was seeing the Furthur Festival Show in Veneta, Oregon ! ... with Good Ol' Ken Kesey on-stage ' Singing ' Lovelight ! with Bobby Weir !!  Hmm ... and Who-Else ? was up-there too ? - Jorma Kaukonen ! - Jack Cassidy ! - Mickey Hart ! - Bruce Hornsby ! - and, quite surely I'm missing someone-else here - so ... Cheers ! to them too !!  But, anyhow ... " Back to This-Shirt ! ".  As seriously ... Have You ! Ever-Even ' Seen ' This-One ??  Because no-joke here ... as this-one is just " That-Rare ! ".  Super-Duper " Rare !! " in fact.  I mean - like ... " Double-Secret Rare !! " - seeing as how I'm rambling here about old ( but Grate ! ) Eugene-Shows ! and all.  But, with all " Rareness " aside - let's just start talking about " Awesomeness !!! ".  Because as far a 1996 Grateful Dead Shirts, GDM Shirts, Lot Shirts, etc., etc. ... This ! is just one of the ' Most-Awesome ! " based solely on the Art Design ! all-alone !!  I mean ... this-one pretty much gets one of those two-thumbs-up " Are You Kidding-Me ? " ... " Awesome !! ".  As it a really ' Boney ' Grateful Dead ! ' scene ' here - with " Grateful Dead " designed with an Incredibly-Rare ! ( & Incredibly-Awesome ! ) " Font ! ".  And, as for the " Skull " from this Dead-Skeleton ... it's got a G.D. " Lightning-Bolt ! " for a " Crack " on its Head !  And, as for the Incredible " Sunglasses ! " - we are talking Ponch & John " Chips ! " style right-here - or, maybe even the Village People too !?  Or, maybe just " Chips ! ".  But, either way ... these are Ray Ban Wire Rimmed ' Mirrored ' Beauties ! - even with Silver ! Wire Rim !  And, even More-Importantly than that ( very surprisingly ) ... there are Bright-Colored Red, White & Blue ' Steal Your Face ! ' Images !! - in the " Reflections " of the Sunglasses !!!  And, can't have a better ' Background ' on this-one than Rock & Roll " Black ! " - being, after all ... that This-Shirt is just So ! " Rock & Roll !! ".  As I'm not quite sure where this one ' fits ' exactly in the order of my " Favorite Dead Shirts & Rock Shirts " of All-Time ? - but, it's most-definitely Always ! been ' Up-There ! '.  And, as far as the " Post-1995 Era " goes ... it's Most-Definitely up-there ... Right at The-Top !! -- Enjoy !!!!!
