Description:

"Trash rolls in the mud with graphic art of such questionable aesthetic quality and social worth that it practically redefines the poster as advertising medium. Chapters each define a key trash topic (Sex Trash, Action Trash, Horror Trash, Race Trash, Groovy Trash, and Docu Trash), collecting the funniest, most disturbing and desperate posters from each genre; and short introductions set the tone, offer eye-opening context, and then just get out of the way to let the posters themselves run riot on the page. Thrill to unfortunate star turns, towering tidal waves, armies of killer spiders, sex-starved zombies, and explosion after glorious explosion. Truly visionary in both content and approach, Trash is a feast for the eye and other visceral zones. Free your mind, and the trash will follow."--BOOK JACKET.
