The Amazing !!! David Opie Art-Designed " Skeleton Sun !! " Tour-Issued GDM Shirt for the 1991 Grateful Dead Summer Tour !! ...
in Ultra-Rare " White " !!!
Fellow Dead Fans !!! ... and especially-those who recognize one of those " The ! " Shirts - made for a Grateful Dead Summer Tour when they see one ! Well, without any questions - this here is indeed one of those ! Everyone has their own opinions obviously, but at least to me ? It was either this one here - or the " Bucking Bronco & Horse " Shirt for this '91 Summer Tour that led the G.D. League ! - in Killer ! Tour Shirts, that is ... naturally ! Wow, as I'm not sure I can really pick between these two designs - as they are just so different in ' Theme ' ?!? But, this one ... Whoa !!! It's sure tough to top this art design for most certain - pretty much All ! across the board - and all of that credit goes straight to David Opie ! on this Amazing " Sun Skeletons ! " Art Design - as Opie sure was on a G.D. Shirt design Hot-Steak ! right around this Early/Mid-'90's Era. And, if you happened to partake in this Fantastic ! G.D. era yourself ... well, the Dead too were on a serious Hot-Streak !!! I myself caught a fairly-generous 7-Shows on this '91 Summer Tour ... 1 at Buckeye - 2 in Charlotte - 1 at RFK - 2 at Giants - and 2 at Pine Knob - and let me tell You ! - if you weren't also there yourself ... " This Space Was Getting Hot !!! ". Dang ... I mean this was a Solid ! Tour ( and then some ) - with arguably the RFK & Giants Shows probably being the best. And, my ears can't be too-wrong over the RFK call-out here either, or the Giants Shows - as you can actually see ( " View ! " ) the RFK Show for Yourself ! here today ... in the form of View From The Vault II !!! Yep, the Boys brought-it Nicely ! at Good Ol' RFK !!! Naturally though, right ?! Hah ! Plus, those Giants Shows were really right up there too - and ... for me, if I had to pick one of these Shows on a " Desert-Island " scenario, I would probably have to go with --- 6/17/91 Giants ! Which, has now too been released from the Dead Vault in box Box Set Pro-Audio Form, and also as a " Meet Up At The Movies ! " as well. And, you know ... it's always so ! incredibly tough to ' pick ' - so hey, why even bother !! Classic ... And, come to think of it too - Buckeye got so Hot ! at points, that David Gans even used some of the segments on the " Dead Dead Hour " - just a few months after the fact. And, one of the Pine Knob nights was also released in the " G.D. Download Series " years later -- the really Hot ! night where Ace " split-up " the Throwing Stones !!! That's kind of how my eyes have always looked at this Opie '91 T-Shirt design for this Tour ! ... one with Consistency !!! The Band was nice & consistent to say the least on this run, and they rose the bar at their own will ... with of course, the crowd always ! being a major determining factor ! So ... that's how I see these Sun Skeletons !! - one after another ... just pulling their load of the Sun(s) ! - and Everybody doing their part until the Sun has traveled on through the Horizon ! I know - I know, a bit " out there " indeed ( Ha ! ) - but, this one is close to 30-Years old ... so I've just had some serious time to think it through ! Wow ... and as for the Colors !?! - just So-Killer ! ... with Bright & Bold - Both !! being understatements. I mean this Shirt is so incredible Hot ! that I can see someone that might not even usually wear Dead Shirts usually - just giving-in & submitting on This-One ! Ha ! No joke, as that is the degree to which this one catches the Eye ! Just a rare & incredible '91 G.D. treasure here ... so go ahead & check-out the Photos, and the Details ! - to see for yourself. Plus, at least to my eyes ( again ! ) - this one even has a little bit of the Pink Floyd ! " Ummagumma !! " thing going on here - as one scene after another just dissipates and/or recreates off into the distance !
And last, but most-certainly not ' least ' to some Dead Fans out there ... this Vintage-Original Shirt is in Size XL - in the Ultra-Rare ! " White " T Shirt version !! As due to the sheer Awesomeness ! & Age alone - it's real safe to say that not too many of these Survived the " Ravages of Time ! ... & Space " ( & Sun !!! ) - Ha ! Just-Fabulous !!! You bet ... just-like Summer Tour '91 ! - Bright & Bold !!! -- Enjoy !!!!!!!
