Poster Information
The poster uses the theme of "hayfever," with the names of the bands ("Leaves," "Grass Roots") intentionally designed to relate to common allergens. The artwork is famous for its use of vibrant colors and distinctive, flowing lettering that made the text somewhat difficult to read, a hallmark of the psychedelic poster art style pioneered by Wes Wilson.
