About the Item

Jerry Garcia Platinum Palladium photograph. 20x24 inch printed on Arches paper. Limited Edition of 4/35 “It was early in 1969, that Jann Wenner finally decided to do a Rolling Stone cover story on the Grateful Dead. We all wondered why it took him so long – of all the home brewed bands in San Francisco, the Dead was the one with the greatest mystique, the ones with the fans, the delightfully rabid Dead Heads. The editorial crew asked me how I wanted to shoot the Dead. I decided I would make the photos in the style of one of my photographic heroes, Richard Avedon, one by one, with a plain studio grey background and simple studio lighting. There is much more to this story but this shot of Jerry Garcia tells a lot of it. The entire band was relaxed when they showed up at my home-based studio, a couple of blocks from the Dead’s house at 710 Ashbury St. It was an even more relaxed Jerry who opened his hand to me, the one with the missing digit, for, as far as I can tell, the first time he publicly and so openly showed his imperfect picking hand. I call the photo, ‘Jerry Waving.'” – Baron Wolman
