60s art and posters


During the mid to late 60s, the age of sex and drugs and rock and roll began the transition into psychedelia and art crept into the scene in the form of album covers, flyers and posters. As the 60s drew to close, we saw the music and art peak with events like Woodstock and the acid tests. The scene started to fade at the end of the decade, with the deaths of Jim Morrison, Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix signalling both the beginning of the 70s and the end of rock and roll as people had known it. For many, posters shown here like this sexy, nude girl are vivid reminders of an amazing time in history.
