This is an offset poster printed by Tea Lautrec Litho and designed by Wes Wilson of Avalon Ballroom and Fillmore fame. It's from June of 1968 and was created for the Associated Council of the Arts (A.C.A.) National Arts Conference in San Francisco. Dimensions are about 15" wide by 28" tall. It took several of us to figure out how to read the lettering, but it can be done...
This is great!
Funny that a poster to advertise something is hard to read....maybe you need to be a flower child!
Yeah, thanks how we rolled back then.... Concert promoter Bill Graham used to complain about exactly that. This poster was created after Wilson stopped working for Graham, although the argument was about money rather than art, which proves, I guess, that some flower children had more on their minds than just peace and love. ;-)
