Finchley Boys/Silvester and His Hot Band Poster

19

This is a poster advertising a joint show of the Finchley Boys and Silvester and His Hot Band in San Francisco's Palace Theatre, 1971. The pigments are pink and black DayGlo depicting a couple making out in the center with flowers, ornate Art-Deco patterns, and the names of the Finchley Boys and Silvester. Around the names of the performers is the information of the hosts, accompanying performers, included film, and the dates for the performance. The poster and its designer Todd Trexter are part of the history to define queer hippie/psychedelic performance aesthetic especially in San Francisco
