ボビー・ウェアとフィル・レッシュ、グレイトフル・デッド、ネバダ大学リノ校、ネバダ州リノ、1974年5月12日。

The print arrived in a sturdy sleeve with no bends, and the black-and-white tones are rich enough to make the stage feel alive. It’s a nice piece of Dead history to have on the wall, especially for a Reno show.

The grain and contrast on this print really bring out the energy of that Reno show, and the focus on Bobby and Phil together captures their interplay perfectly. It’s like having a piece of May 12, 1974 right on my wall—exactly what I hoped for when I ordered it.

The shot captures Weir and Lesh mid-set with that raw 1974 energy, and Polonsky's photo has a nice grainy feel that suits the era. Took a few days longer to ship than expected, but the print quality itself is sharp and the archival paper feels substantial.
