The Grateful Dead are getting a trading card set for their 60th anniversary, titled ‘The Grateful Dead – 60 Years So Far… A Visual Trip’.
The trading card set includes a 50-card base set collection of Grateful Dead iconography, classic characters, and show posters, with additional cards that could be serial-numbered hits, themed inserts, or an autograph card.
The set features familiar Grateful Dead symbols like the Dancing Bears and Uncle Sam, as well as 1-of-1 High Potency Purple variants and Dancing Parallels recognizable to long-time Dead Heads.
David Lemieux, the band’s official archivist, producer, and legacy manager, is involved in the project and has autographed parallel cards numbered to five.
Lemieux expressed his excitement about the collaboration, stating, “I’ve dedicated much of my life to showcasing the joy that the Grateful Dead spread through their music, so working with Upper Deck to translate that journey into trading cards has been really special.”
