Description

This is a rare opportunity to grab an original bargain just in time for xmas.

The poster is a call to legalise cannabis in the form of a rally in hyde park in 1967 and loads of information can be found on google by putting martin sharps name in.

I bought this original poster for £40 back in the eighties and it has hardly been out of its original tube it came in.

This much sought after poster is for sale with Subway Posters for £250 ( Item number: 180013678081 on ebay) and is a must for any poster collector or anybody who wants an investment aswell as a original present.

Here are some details about the poster and Martin Sharp himself

This period in London and and his work with Oz brought him international renown. As well as his Oz artwork and his famed album covers for Cream, he produced famous posters of musicians -- Bob Dylan, Donovan and his classic 'exploding' Jimi Hendrix poster, based on a photo by Linda McCartney, which was used for the cover of Richard Neville's memoir Hippie Hippie Shake. These and other works like the poster for the "Legalise Pot" rally are keynote graphic works of the period and originals are now highly prized collector's items.


Two of Martin's best-known posters from the Oz period -- (left) his famous Bob Dylan poster, printed on reflective foil paper and
(right) the poster advertising the "Legalise Pot" rally and 'Smoke-In' held at Speakers Corner, Hyde Park, London on 1 May 1967

Good luck and feel free to ask me any questions about the poster after checking out my 100|% FEEDBACK
