Lot Description:RICK GRIFFIN - “Murphy”
poster (John Severson Productions, 1969)
48 x 71cm (19” x 28”) -
Notes:Griffin’s early art included providing cartoons for “Surfer” magazine, including a little tow-headed character named “Murph the Surf”. Murph continued to show up from time to time throughout the 1960s, in Rick’s comic book work (Zap Comix in particular), and appears here in a poster. The art also appeared in Rick’s “Tales From the Tube” comic book, and it remains one of his most colourful and psychedelic efforts.
