A close friend of mine just donated to me a book she picked up
years ago. It is a poster book put out by Mick Farren in the UK
about 1978. Inside it are approx. 50 11"x17" reproductions of
early psych posters, typically advertising concerts or albums.
I skimmed thru it at once, and lo-and-behold there are *3*
HW-related posters in there! There is the "Roadhawks" car image,
the Deep Fix NWF cover, and a HW/Man "1999 Party" poster. The
credits say that all were donated by Doug Stiff to Mick. I even
spotted the grey BOC cover with the Messiersmitt(sp) in there.
Too cool! She blew my mind when she just pulled this out of the
back of a closet, where it has sat for more than a decade. She saw
the HW reference and remembered my obsession with this group (all
my friends know I like that "Hawk-something from England" group
that I am always trying to play for them).
...just felt like sharing a happy moment with ya'll... ;-)
