Description
“LSD Art – A New Experience That Bombards the Senses”
A striking and highly collectible original 1966 issue of LIFE Magazine, featuring the famous “LSD Art” cover story that captured the psychedelic counterculture emerging in the mid-1960s.
Published at the height of the cultural revolution, this issue explores the experimental art inspired by psychedelic experiences and the rapidly changing youth culture of the era. The cover’s dramatic and surreal imagery has become one of the most visually recognisable LIFE covers of the 1960s.
Inside the magazine are period articles, photography and advertisements that provide a fascinating snapshot of American culture during one of the most transformative decades in modern history.
The reverse of the magazine features a classic Viceroy cigarette advertisement, another authentic piece of mid-century advertising design that collectors often appreciate.
