Back in the 70's I used to visit record shops in the neighborhood and would
peruse through the posters and seem to get personally attached to a few that
were by an artist named John Pitre. Still, to this day..I have a 3 part series
of posters that I saved my pennies to buy as a kid, one that hangs next to
me as I type called 'A New Dawn'. It can be found here on his site:

http://www.johnpitre.com/socio.html

I also own the ones titled 'Overpopulation' and 'Restrictions'.

I wrote to John last year and he was amazed that I still had the originals.
He also offered to sign and frame the 3 as new prints for 90 bucks
each...which I thought was cool of him to offer,
just don't have the extra funds to do so.

But it was awesome to have found his site,
and to know that he is still creating stuff today.
