AUCTION - Political - Psychedelic Anti Draft NYC 1968 Poster - Very Good
Now here's a real sign of the times piece. This is a head shop poster from 1968. Printed in New York, with artwork by Lawrence. Intense and visually arresting, we see the Grim Reaper riding through a cemetery, with a giant head of President Lyndon Johnson hovering over his shoulder with a sinister grin. Written at top and bottom are the words "Stay Out of the Draft. You'll Catch Your Death". Catchy pun for a scary subject and it adds mightily to the impact of the piece. Done in blue, black, and white, this head shop poster packs quite a wallop. Measuring 21 1/8" X 28 1/8", the poster is in Very Good condition, with pinholes in all four corners, wear, and some small tears. Some light surface abrasions and some writing in pen on the reverse. Also on the back are the remnants of an old rubber band. This is the only one that we have ever seen.
