## About Stanley Mouse

Stanley Mouse, born Stanley George Miller in 1940, is an American graphic artist, author, and painter closely identified with the visual culture surrounding psychedelic rock. He became known for concert-poster designs and album-cover artwork connected with bands including the Grateful Dead and Journey. Authority records from Wikidata, VIAF, Getty, and the Museum of Modern Art help distinguish him from similarly named creators and document Stanley Mouse as his established professional identity. Collectors most often encounter his name in relation to 1960s rock posters, music-related graphic art, and album imagery, although VIAF also identifies painting as part of his practice. Some projects were produced through collaborative studio settings, so the precise credit, date, format, and production history of an individual object can matter. His presence in museum and library authority systems, together with a substantial auction-record footprint on Appraisily, makes accurate entity matching especially useful when researching posters, printed material, album-related art, and paintings attributed to him.

## Common works and media

Auction and appraisal contexts may include psychedelic rock concert posters, album-cover artwork, related music graphics, other graphic works, and paintings. Material associated with the Grateful Dead or Journey may appear in cataloguing, but band association, production date, printing history, attribution, and object format should be verified rather than inferred from imagery alone.

## Market and appraisal context

Stanley Mouse objects should be evaluated at the level of the individual work rather than from the artist's name alone. Relevant distinctions include whether the object is a concert poster, album-related graphic, other printed work, or painting; when it was made; and how securely it connects to his documented psychedelic-rock output. Because his professional identity appears as Stanley Mouse, Mouse, and Stanley George Miller, cataloguing and attribution should account for those name forms without treating a name match as proof. Comparable public auction records can provide useful context when the work type, date, authorship, and format are genuinely similar. This source pack does not document edition sizes, printing states, condition standards, or recent realized prices, so those questions require object-specific research.

## Appraisily data basis

Appraisily artist pages combine public artist-identity research with auction records and auction-house context. When records are available, sale dates, realized prices, and comparable lots are considered alongside the specific object's attribution, medium, format, date, and condition.
