Most of these are gone now…..but this was the sticker board right behind the sales counter…..

stickerboard at Rainy Day Music

this is from the “film days”. The sticker board was one of the first display areas in the store and one of the last to leave. This photo is from late in its evolution.







Relix Magazine August 1995 Vol. 22 No. 4 Garcia Cover


Realized $6.05 2/7/10

Description Of The Thing:
Relix Magazine, 66 pages, Vol. 22, No. 4 , August, 1995, Jerry Garcia cover.  Since the magazine is printed BEFORE its date, this is probably the issue that was current when Garcia died that August.  The final page is a plea by publisher Toni Brown to contribute ideas to “stabilize the scene” due to violence which had taken place during the tour that Summer.  It was ‘stabilized’ all right, but nobody meant like that.

Condition Of The Thing:
Used, small handling/storage wear, insignificant dents, a little bit of spine wear, stored upon receipt, not handled a great deal.
