A rare piece of art created by late Grateful Dead guitarist Jerry Garcia became available as a non-fungible token, or NFT, on Wednesday, May 5, to coincide with the 56th anniversary of the first time the band played together, as the Warlocks, at Magoo’s Pizza Parlor in Menlo Park in 1965.
The one-of-a-kind digital piece titled “Gift” was created by Garcia in 1990 and is being released by the Jerry Garcia Foundation, which is run by his fourth wife, Manasha Garcia (nee Matheson), and youngest daughter, Keelin. It is available for auction on the peer-to-peer SuperRare website, with carbon offsetting by a company called Aerial.
