Pink Floyd Handbill

Pink Floyd Handbill
Bonnie MacLean gave a nod to two contemporary cultural trends, the Nehru jacket of the well-dressed hipster and the psychedelic pattern of the fabric, to advertise British group Pink Floyd's appearance at the Fillmore.
Print Variations
The only handbills that exist measure 4 1/2" x 6 3/4" and were cut from the BG089/090 pre-concert double-sized postcard mailer.
About Bonnie MacLean
During the early days of the Fillmore, MacLean was the most "present" member of the staff. She collected tickets, passed out handbills, blew up balloons and counted money for Fillmore productions. Impressed with her lettering skill on the upcoming attractions chalkboards, Bill Graham surprised her with an easel and art supplies for Christmas, 1967, and MacLean's poster artist career was launched. Untrained in graphic arts, MacLean's early style evolved into ornate, Medieval-Gothic designs. Faces in her posters wore trance-like stares, steady and serene, and evoke the detached spirituality of the sixties.
