Rick Griffin, for the G.D. 1988 Fall Tour stop - at M.S.G. !!! And though the photos of this G.D. Beauty ! do indeed say-it-all, I still can't help but chime in ! I mean just ' Look ' ! at this one ... Wow !?! - a " Skeleton Jester-In-The-Box " Smiling as he proudly pulls apart a " Grateful Dead " paper cut-out for display ! While ... no-doubt ! ...
