Poster Child: The Psychedelic Art & Technicolor Life of David Edward Byrd is a stunning retrospective on the art and stories behind one of rock ’n’ roll’s most influential artists—written by Byrd and author Robert von Goeben. Foreword by Marc Myers Award-Winning Author of Rock Concert: An Oral History. Beginning in the late 1960s graphic artist David Edward Byrd pioneered the iconic visual styles that have come to define rock ’n’ roll graphics. Byrd created poster concert and album art for Jimi Hendrix the Who Lou Reed Janis Joplin Jefferson Airplane Ravi Shankar Traffic Van Halen the Grateful Dead the 1969 Woodstock Festival and KISS among others. In fact the 1968 poster that Byrd created for the Jimi Hendrix Experience was voted #8 in the Top 25 Rock Posters by Billboard. Beyond this he created the iconic imagery for many Broadway shows including Follies Godspell Jesus Christ Superstar Little Shop of Horrors and more. Byrd is considered one of the foremost graphic artists of 20th-century pop culture and yet he has never achieved widespread name recognition. Poster Child shares the artwork of Byrd—including never-before-seen sketches of famous posters for celebrated musicians—with incredible accompanying anecdotes about his encounters with rock ’n’ roll legends which combine to create a book that is sure to thrill music lovers and cultural connoisseurs alike for its visual vibrancy and storytelling.

This interesting book on election and other political posters of the mid 1920s in England and in Switzerland captures very effectively the social political ferment in those two democracies after the end of the First World War. Profusely illustrated the posters themselves tell the tale most effectively. Must have had an avid audience in Japan whose admiration for effective design in advertising and propaganda would have combined with an interest in democratic movements in Europe as their own "Taisho Democracy" was evolving.

Bifolium. He begins by stating that he has read Walters' 'Charm of Lancashire' with great enjoyment and considers it one 'of which every Lancashire family and lover of the county should possess a copy'. He continues: 'I myself was born between Pendle and Boulsworth. My Father's stock farmed around Trawden and the Boulsworth side and my mother's around Blacko and the Pendle slopes so your section devoted to this locality has an especial attraction for me. Many an afternoon as a boy have I waded i'thwatter-gait at Barrowford and higher up at Roughlee.' As an 'animadversion' on Walters' book he corrects his use of a dialect phrase: 'Out o't'gait! Is a colloquialism frequently heard in that locality “gait†signifying “wayâ€; watter-gait – water-way: but water-gate is like saying water-door or barrier or obstacle whereas the other signification is intended.' He points out a 'printers error' and then states that he has 'written to several of my friends up north and recommended them to secure for themselves a copy of “The Charm of Lancashireâ€'. He ends with news of an exhibition he will be having at Eastertime at which 'there will be one or two pictures in which Pendle looms in the background'. Pencil note at foot of letter: 'This is Orlando Greenwood – a Painter in Oils'. TWO: 31 October 1930. 1p. 12mo. He thanks him for 'the notice of the publication of “Romantic Cheshire†informs him that he has ordered the book and wishes him 'all the success that you had with your book on Lancashire'. According to one authority: 'Orlando Greenwood was born in Nelson Lancashire. He studied at Goldsmiths’ College of Art his studies interrupted by the First World War when he was conscripted into the Royal Engineers. His first major exhibition was held at Spinks London in 1925 which was reported as “a triumph†by the Daily Mail. Greenwood became a full member of the Royal Society of British Artists in 1922 and exhibited at the Royal Academy 1920-1933 the Royal Institute of Painters in Watercolours and the Royal Society of Portrait Painters as well as widely across London at Colnaghi Beaux Arts Gallery The Groupil Salon Gallery and the Leicester and Grosvenor Galleries.
