A Long Strange Trip

Country Joe & The Fish Conklin BG 149 1968

BG 149 Country Joe & the Fish, Terry Reid, Seatrain, Brotherhood Of Light Ticket Set Artist: Lee Conklin Date: Dec 12, 1968 - Dec 15, 1968 Venue: Fillmore West San Francisco, CA Size: 2 11/16" x 4 1/4"

"BG149 is a Lee Conklin work whose imagery was so fluid one could worry that it might run right off the page. No other poster artist of the period had Conklin's ability to channel the intensity and weirdness of the psychedelic experience onto paper. For this reason, Conklin's work was not for the faint-hearted, nor was it productive to try to understand the strange landscape of his fantasy world. Better to enjoy the artist's talent for giving the viewer a glimpse of the acid experience."
