Description This is the dragon print that was used on the Grateful dead backstage pass . [link]
This dragon got copied a lot. We have a collection of knock off belt buckles, mugs, tapestries, regular prints and "foil" prints with this dragon on them.
I couldn't find an actual print. I don't know if we still have any, other than one framed one, so I scanned this small, half tone image from an old Alberti Design catalog.

The original drawing was done on scratch board.

We did color thee for awhile, we had people hand color them and sold them framed.

I have this print! Signed and everything. It's a pretty decent size too. My dad originally had it, but later gave it to me when i was older.

How neat! That is getting to be an old print!

I have this print! I got it and another (mother dragon?) from the Dancing Dragon catalog years ago. It's still one of my favorite pieces of art.

We don't have any of these, full-size prints anymore!
Maybe we should reprint them.

Show me where to vote/support financially for that to happen.

I think we still have a few unwrapped ones that have been trimmed smaller for framing, all the normal sized ones are sold.
I am not sure where they are, though!

I remember a lot of those knock-offs back in the day. Seems that this awesome little busybody got into - or onto - just about everything. I even caught a few Elfwood artists trying to pass off the print - not a cite-copy, but the actual print with halftone dots - as their own artwork.
