pretty crazy stuff from bout 55 years ago, the Woodstock and Monterey Pop era if you were into music.... and damn, they had so much cool poster art in the 60s, if you were looking in the right place for concert advertising.
Art was so prevalent, people even went full blast on their vans, and even old school buses
There's a museum of music poster art in San Francisco I saw on the internet a little while ago... I wonder what all those graphic artists did after the 60s? Maybe album cover art
definitely a rip off of Alphonse Mucha, one of my favorite artists.

ReplyDeleteThose decal sheets take me back! The ones that gave me the most trouble were the fender decals for the Ala Kart, I remember I had a hard time getting the wrinkles out on those curved fenders. Wish I had that kit back.
ReplyDeleteWell, that's part of why you look at my blog I suppose... to take you back to the era of Von Dutch and Ed Roth.
DeleteThose kits are still out there, though they cost a lot more, but- don't you make a lot more now than when you were a kid? I guess Einsteins theory of relativity proves out huh?
Anyway, I hope you get one of those kits, and get lost in the reverie and sentimental mood to give that model another try

DeleteThere's tons of model making videos on YouTube, they'll show you how to do the decals right.
