Abstract:
Multicolored illustration of a clown on the left, lighting up a marijuana cigarette with a circus in the background. The name of the brand of marijuana is in colored print, drawn with green and white stripes that look like candy. Additional text is in red. The artists' names and copyright information are at the bottom of the card in black print. This is one of several images the artists collaborated on, featuring a series of iconic marijuana brand label parodies they called the California Homegrowers Association. The fake brands they created were illustrations inspired by the California produce crate-style agricultural labels of the day. Text on the postcard verso is in black print.
