Eureka Municipal Auditorium 1/20/68

The Grateful Dead was the most famous band from California in the Pacific Northwest during this time period, partly because many of the Dead's crew members came from Oregon. This image appears like a "Wanted" or "Notice" sign advertising the Grateful Dead and Quicksilver Messenger Service Tour of the Great Pacific Northwest. These appear with six different venues and show dates and were designed by George Hunter.
