description (VRA Ontology): "Push Pin was caught up with, and helped influence, the colorful psychedelic fashions of the late sixties. This issue consisted of three faux 'advertising' posters with slogans on the front and texts on the verso side. Chwast, Glaser, and McMullan interpreted the drug-induced style in their own ways. Chwast’s devilish image illustrated Canto XVIII of Dante’s Inferno." - AIGA Design Archive

"The poster recently appeared in a 2014 episode of Mad Men, during the show’s seventh season. Featured prominently in advertising executive Roger Sterling’s office, the poster is used to ominously evoke the psychedelic ’60s." - Seymour Chwast Archive
