Description: DON'T BE AFRAID TO MAKE AN OFFER VERY RARE - JIMI HENDRIX & JANIS JOPLIN ANTI-DRUG POSTER Here's one of the earliest anti-drug public service announcements, in vivid color. Two legendary rock and rollers who died in their prime are the sole attractions on this psychedelic 36" x 14" Color photolithographic halftone poster from NP: L & S Productions in 1970. This is an original 1970 poster! It features Janis Joplin and Jimi Hendrix on opposite sides of a die-cut pill in this anti-drug poster. Both were recently deceased at the time this was printed. One of the most influential electric guitarists in the history of popular music, Hendrix died of an overdose in his London hotel room on September 18, 1970 while Joplin - the throaty singer-songwriter dubbed the "Queen of Psychedelic Soul" - was found dead in her hotel room from a mixture of heroin and alcohol just 17 days later!Their deaths in 1970 propelled the emerging anti-drug movement, which would eventually lead to President Richard Nixon declaring a war on drugs in 1971 and creating the Drug Enforcement Administration in 1973. The juxtaposition of these popular icons with the question "Winner?" summarizes the grip of the era's drug culture and the beginning of a concerted effort to curtail its power. Condition: - in very good condition for its age. There is a 1" rip on Jimi's side [taped from the back side]. Janis has a light mark above her head [left side] and some wrinkles to her side as well. Please zoom in on pictures. There is no damage under the tape measures - needed them to weigh it down as it has been rolled up for quite some time now! Just a few, very small and light spots to the back.would look great framed! **** DUE TO THE PRICE, YOU WILL HAVE TO SIGN FOR IT SHIPPING TO USA ONLY, WELL PADDED - local pick up is free - I use recycled packing materials to save the planet and to save you $ -thanks! #0075- BDrefund policy - due to the excuses used for returns/ refunds - I do except returns BUT - I do not refund any shipping costs OR refund paypal's % if they dont refund me [apx 3% when money was sent to me, 3% paypal will take out of your refund] -so please ask questions if you are unsure or I missed anything.
