Hundreds of unique, and now collectible, backstge passes were minted by the Grateful Dead. 

It started in 1983 with classic Grateful Dead imagery but soon evolved to include everything from band and crew family albums, original sketches by Jerry and the famous puzzle sets created by artist Tony Reonegro.It all ended in 1995 with a Marvel Comics collaboration and Jerry's passing.

Below are three of their fish themed passes along with soundboard recordings from the corresponding shows.

Mr. Bones throws a two hander

With all the press releases flying regarding Abel's new Steal Your Face reel we thought it appropriate to share another vintage fishing inspired Dead design created for the summer 1984 tour.

Dead Tours were oftened refered to as the Golden Road which was also the name of the Grateful Dead periodic 'fanzine' produced by Dead insiders Blair Jackson and Regan McMahon from 1984 through 1993. It also made for a logical title for the 12 CD box set reissue of all the Dead albums on the Warner Brothers label.
