The year is 1799. In a creek near his family's North Carolina farm, a 12-year-old boy named Conrad Reed discovers a 17 lb gold nugget. Unaware of the rock's value, his father used it as a doorstop for years before selling it for a grand total of $3.50. This discovery was the first documented commercial gold find in the United States and would set the table for the much more famous California Gold Rush of 1849.
So anyway, therein lies the inspiration for this Dave Matthews Band poster that was created by Rich Kelly for their recent Charlotte show. The poster is a Four color screenprint that measures 18" x 24". Signed and numbered Artist Edition of 35.
He'll be putting a handful of these in the shop on Thursday, July 26 at 2pm Eastern at https://richkelly.bigcartel.com/
