[1972]. Stanley Mouse's original sketch for the back cover of the Grateful Dead's album "Europe '72," first titled "Overthere." Signed by Mouse. Shows an early version of "Ice Cream Boy" -- who became an iconic figure after the album came out -- and the original title, which is written above the figure as "OVERTHERE" (one word) and below him as "OverThere." In this pencil sketch, "Ice Cream Boy" has a plain, two-button shirt, which was changed to a checkered shirt in the final version. To the lower right is a lips and tongue design, resembling that of John Pasche's Rolling Stones design of 1971, but without teeth. The Stones' logo was voted the greatest band logo of all time in an online poll in 2008, the same year Ice Cream Boy appeared on Converse sneakers. An early and significant sketch of a key icon of one of the most enduring rock bands of the 1960s, by an artist who was at the forefront of the renaissance of graphic poster art that took place in San Francisco in the 1960s and early 1970s. In addition to numerous posters, Mouse also designed and drew the cover for Workingman's Dead, the first Grateful Dead album to achieve significant commercial success. 8-1/2" x 11". Several light (coffee?) stains, one corner torn; very good. [#007666] SOLD
