  • Condition: This Over 35-Year Old! Grateful Dead 1985 Twenty Years So Far ( featuring Rick Griffin Patriot with Guitar Art ! ) 20th Anniversary Rag ( with Robert Hunter G.D. Poem ! ) Handbill Flyer is in overall Good condition. Item has small/light indentations all throughout, and a few assorted very-light marks - yet no folding creases, or anything of that nature. Colors are still ultra-bright, and the paper is of the 'smooth' nature. Never 'folded', 'creased' or anything harsh like that - and stored flat & protected in plastic for decades. Numerous indentations all throughout the surface - thoroughly (too many to count) - please see the close-up photos provided. Good condition overall - and close to Very Good in the eyes of some I suppose, considering the age of this item (35-Years) - yet still an excellent-candidate for professional framing (on either side!), if so desired. Size dimension is approximately 8 1/2" x 5 1/2". Please see all photos provided, included of the actual item. Enjoy !!!

    20th Anniversary Rag
    Just like Grandma Moses
    Just like Auld Lang Syne
    Play the change, however strange
    And get it right this time!
    It's been a hard haul
    20 as the crow flies,
    When your back's to the wall
    Got to play it as it lies
    Let there be music, dance and the beating of drum
    Drop whatever you're doing and come on the run
    Twenty years later the groove is just starting to click
    It's all variations on some impossible lick
    Come hear Uncle John's Band
    Playing to the years
    Come along or go alone
    Like an avalanche or a rolling stone
    Wave that flag!
    Wave it while you can
    Long as you keep coming
    You got a band
    Thanks for 20 years of being
    an audience which is the envy
    of every other rock and roll band alive,
    F***'em if they can't take a joke!
    Write if you get work.
    Spare change?
    Don't touch that plug!
