Puzzle Description:

The classic "Steal Your Face" logo of the Grateful Dead. The title is from the song "He's Gone" and goes "Like I told you, what I said - steal your face right off your head!" No blame if you didn't get it ;) This is my first puzzle, so please be kind!

Al, this is an amazing first puzzle. Heck, it is amazing even if it weren't your first. The image is very clear. There's a good balance of white to make it challenging. Very rewarding puzzle.

Now, why would anyone rate it below 3? I give it a 5.

Okay, Al, will you make us another puzzle? Pretty please?

It took 45 years to come up with my first one, and you want the second one in only a day? Patience...

nice debut puzzle. #1 with a bullet I'd say (record chart reference). Thanks for a good puzzle.

Awesome for any attempt, let alone a first! I spotted the image about halfway through solving.

I knew what it'd be from the title, so that helped a lot.
Great job on an iconic image!
Nuthin' left to do but smile, smile, smile!
