Pink Floyd Posters
71It wasn't just the music of Pink Floyd which was groundbreaking and timeless, their artwork is also recognisable worldwide and is truly remembered for its groundbreaking use of graphics and depth; with Floyd being amongst the first bands to use booklets as album sleeves. Floyd are of course still astonishingly popular, and their artwork is still in high demand. This page will take a look at some of the great posters and prints available for purchase, and all are officially licensed Pink Floyd products!
Pink Floyd 'Back Catalogue' Poster (1996)
The fantastic 'Back Catalogue' photography was taken in 1996 to promote the digitally remastered Pink Floyd albums from years prior. It involves a group of naked boys and girls chatting at the edge of a swimming pool with copies of selected Floyd covers painted on their backs. The designs were not projected or computer manipulated but instead directly painted to naturally follow body curves and reflect light. They were painted courtesy of artist Phyllis Cohen. Designer Finlay Cowan was largely responsible for the idea and the design was enhanced by Tony May.

Pink Floyd 'Dark Side Of The Moon' Poster (1973)
This poster features the iconic cover art of the Dark Side Of The Moon. Originally an LP sleeve, the sleeve was designed by British art design group Hipgnosis and graphic designer George Hardie. Hardie has taught postgraduate students of graphic design at the University of Brighton since 1990. Floyd had been given the choice of seven unique designs by Hipgnosis, including George Hardie's prism design, and all four members of the band agreed that it was far the best. In 2003 the album cover was named as the 4th greatest of all time by VH1.

Pink Floyd 'Wish You Were Here' Poster (1975)
'Wish You Were Here' was the seventh studio album from Pink Floyd and was the album which followed 'Dark Side of the Moon'. Hypgnosis partner Storm Thorgerson had accompanied the band on their European tour, whilst they wrote the tracks on the album, and he spent hours brainstorming with the band on the theme of 'absence' to reflect what he and the band considered to be the primary influences of the writing. Thorgerson eventually decided that the album could be sold in a plain dark sleeve, with a small sticker, to hide the cover art from the consumer until they had purchased. The albums cover image of two businessmen shaking hands was based on the idea of people tending to conceal their true feelings for fear of getting burned, and thus one of the men is on fire. The man in the photo is actually on fire, whilst wearing a fire-retardant suit underneath his business suit, and his head was protected by a fire-resistant hood underneath a wig. The photo was taken at Warner Bros. studios in LA.

AWESOME! What a great idea for a hub! Best, GPAGE
They are just great that is all you can say about them. My son, 27, still loves them. Thanks for your hub
"It involves a group of naked boys and girls chatting at the edge of a swimming pool with copies of selected Floyd covers painted on their backs"
there are no boys! thankfully...I had this poster up for years, I know it very well
@sunforged - lol, thanks for pointing out my error, will change it ;)
@everybody else - Indeed they are fantastic, and have stood the test of time!
I didn't know the posters were so affordable these days. Might make a nostalgic Christmas present. - Carol
I LOVE Wish You Were Here. I'm into Tee Shirts. I saw Roger Waters about 2000. They couldn't pitch the shirts and stuff as Pink Floyd, but I have this great shirt that definitely gets the point across. It's sky blue with white clouds, has a few bricks on the upper front shaped like a pig. I also was fortunate to be in Germany in the early 90s and got a Tear Down the Wall sweatshirt.
gorgeous art!
I loved the art that accompanied Pink Floyd albums, and considered it comparable to the Moody Blues album cover art of the same era painted by Phil Travers. I am surprised you didn't mention other Floyd images, such as the pig on the Animals cover and, of course, the illustrations for the Wall.
Good hub topic, nicely done.
awesome
As a big Floyd fan I like this hub, just a tip, methinks if the title was " Pink Floyd Posters Sale " you just might hit the top page in google, enjoy yer weekend mate !

Ryankett, Pink Floyd is certainly still an amazing group of artists, in many ways. My 21 year old son is a huge fan of both the music and the other artistry.
Thanks for this.
