Groupie [poster]

Netherlands: Verkerke Reprodukties NV, ca. 1970. Offset. 21 1⁄2 x 29 in. Very good. Item #7172

Promotional poster for Groupie featuring the Dutch cover of the 1969 cult novel by Jenny Fabian, London’s most famous groupie, cowritten with Johnny Byrne.

One of the most notorious books of the 1960s, Groupie is the fictionalized account of Fabian’s
life in the underground music scene of Swinging London. It caused a sensation for its detailed descriptions of drug use and uninhibited sexual escapades, as well as its thinly veiled references to well-known rock stars. All in all, Groupie paints a detailed portrait of the cultural zeitgeist of Swinging London.

This poster includes the quintessential sixties slogan “Make Love, Make Music, No War!” and a photo of a typical bead- and flower-clad hippie woman.
