DescriptionDesigned not long after Milton Glaser’s piece for The Sound, this poster points to the vibrant blend of Pop Art and psychedelia that infused the early Push Pin style. The Blues Project was a short-lived Greenwich Village-based band that blended folk, pop, blues, and jazz—nods to which can be seen in the eclectic array of instruments and patterns in this poster. The blank space in the lower register of this poster was used to promote the band’s latest concert location. On View
