'shrooms party like it's 1967

'shrooms party like it's 1967
The story behind this cut-paper collage postcard is that the other species of mushrooms were envious of Psilocybe getting to have all the fun of being the psychedelic mushroom, so they decided to have a big San-Francisco-in-1967 party and wear all their best psychedelic duds. The morels weren't invited, but they crashed the party anyway.

All the psychedelic art is from posters for Bill Graham's Fillmore Auditorium, circa 1967.

Spo, Stan Askew, Tim Lukeman, have particularly liked this photo

loved the Fillmore ... among other concerts i saw there was Led Zepplin's first SF appearance. also on that bill were Country Joe and the Fish and Taj Mahal. i arrived in San Franscisco in the summer of 1966. lived in the bay area for 40 years before returning to Los Angeles. incidentally, my ticket to the Zepplin concert cost $3.50. those were the daze. superb collage, Fi! thanks for jogging the memory bank!
