The Grateful Dead: Logo #333

I had hoped to get this up by 3:33 p.m., but, well, you know.  Imagine beating a dead horse for the rest of your life.

The Grateful Dead had three main logos that accompanied them through their long journey in life.  The "Stealie" skull-and-lightning was designed by Owsley Stanley and Bob Thomas in 1969.

Alton Kelley and Stanley "Mouse" Miller designed the flower skeleton in 1971, while Bob Thomas designed those famous dancing bears in 1973.
