Poster has Burgundy background and white border. Poster has a drawing of a nude woman wearing only boots and smoking a cigarette. The woman's right arm is outstretched and appears to be dribbling or bouncing a Yin Yang symbol. The woman is shown standing on her right leg while her left leg is shown in various stages of movement as it bend s at the knee. The smoke from the woman's cigarette expands to form a white field that is the background for the lavender text: "The / Print / Mint / Opening / Dec. 1st / Thurs" at the top edge. The woman's left arm is framing the text: "Seven p.m. / punch / and / goodwill / 1542 Free / Haight". The bottom edge has the text: "Print Mint Strides the Bay S.F.". Client for poster was Berkeley's Print Mint, which opened its second storefront in San Francisco for the Summer of Love, only to close down the next year. [LMC]
