Grateful Dead Shirt : Vintage 1982 : Stanley Mouse Art Design! Tour Sportswear : Large (L) : Very-Rare!!! The Grateful Dead Stanley Mouse Studios Rock Art' Masterpiece! & Stanley Mouse Art Fans!!!
This " Quintessential " Mouse Art Design Grateful Dead logo as much as me? I don't know just what it is exactly... But I have been completely-drawn to this image since I was a youngster!
And pretty-much in a Trance! I started seeing Dead Shows when I was 15... And kept on going & going all I could - all the way to the very-end. And this I remember - because I could never-ever forget... Somewhere between 15 & 16 - I found this image, maybe at a Show?
Or, in a Book - possibly?? But, as soon as I found it - it truly inspired me... Curiosity & all - and it really became my Grateful Dead image that I loved the very-best.
I don't even think that I knew originally that it was by Mouse? Well, I certainly learned of this real-shortly thereafter... And that led to more, and more & more! But, initially & originally - this really was " The One " for me... And I have always felt that way.
And whenever I see it - I Smile! And my point being, that's what the Best of the Best! In Rock Art, and especially G. Art can & will do... & especially by the Mouses!These designs work on you - from the very start... And they can truly find their way into your mind - sometimes right away, and other times it can take a little while. But when they do get you really good - then they belong to you, and you belong to them. Just like the great Ken Kesey once said It's like a Trade-Off! And, I sure hope you get that reference.
Well, this beauty here is a piece among pieces. And, if this one doesn't go as far as " Inspiring " you, like it has me...You will still be personally responsible for delivering some serious... When fellow Grateful Dead - Mouse - & Rock & Roll Fans!
One from over 40-Years Ago! - from the Grateful Dead Era which I personally do consider to be the G. A time when the Band was a little more' off-the-grid' from the mainstream Rock World - the Creativity! Was still at an all-time high, and the abilities to play more intimate Venues was still consistently available to the Good Ol' 1980's! A Mouse Studios - Stanley Mouse!
