Lot 1810
Stanley Mouse Original Drawing. Original drawing, "Sun Lion 1978" by rock and roll artist Stanley Mouse, signed twice. Pencil on paperboard, 10 x 15". Minor toning to edges; three small paint smears. The toning and paint would be easily matted out and the quality and distinctive look of the image would make that well worthwhile. Overall, very good to fine condition.
Mouse, one of the best-known artist of the San Francisco scene, created such indelible images as the "Zig-Zag Man", the Grateful Dead's skull and roses logo, the Steve Miller Band's flying horse and the Journey scarab, as well as numerous other posters and album covers. Bill Graham once said "Stanley Mouse put the face on rock and roll" and, looking back on his many contributions, that is certainly a valid claim. This is a great opportunity to own one of Mouse's original works.
Estimated Value $750 - 1,200.
