Grateful Dead Rainforest Benefit Poster & Ticket (1988) – Framed and Signed by Jerry Garcia & Bob Weir
Framed Original Poster and Ticket Stub | Hand-Signed by Jerry Garcia & Bob Weir
This extraordinary collector’s piece features an original poster and ticket from the legendary Rainforest Benefit Concert, hand-signed by Jerry Garcia and Bob Weir, two founding members of the Grateful Dead. Beautifully framed and preserved, this rare pairing captures both the spirit of the band and their commitment to environmental causes.
Held on May 25, 1988, at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley, California, the Rainforest Benefit brought together a powerhouse lineup to raise awareness and funds for the preservation of the world’s rainforests. The Grateful Dead headlined the event, joined by the likes of Bonnie Raitt and David Crosby. The show was more than a concert, it was a call to action during a critical time in the global environmental movement, blending the band’s free-spirited ethos with activism and purpose.
The poster features vibrant, nature-inspired artwork by artist Stanley Mouse, best known for his iconic collaborations with Alton Kelley and his role in defining the psychedelic visual identity of the Grateful Dead. Printed in limited numbers for the benefit event, these posters are highly sought after, especially when paired with an original ticket stub and signed by both Garcia and Weir.
Jerry Garcia’s signature, always treasured, adds profound historical and emotional value. Bob Weir’s signature complements it, capturing the bond and musical legacy they built together over decades.
Framed and ready to display, this piece is not just memorabilia, it’s a powerful tribute to the band’s music, their message, and a singular night that brought art, activism, and community together under the stars.
A true museum-worthy artifact for any serious Deadhead or collector of rock history.
