It's the only existing artifact for a landmark event of the hippie era, the Mantra-Rock Dance, held in 1967 in San Francisco. The image falls under Artworks, illustrations, and historical documents, and qualifies for FP on all four eligibility counts (even though any one of them should suffice) as:

notable in its own right,, being the only remaining relic of the historic event;
of (arguably) high artistic merit, being a graphic sample of psychedelic art of the time a-la Stanley Mouse;
of high historic merit, bearing witness to the involvement of some iconic counterculture figures like Allen Ginsberg and Janis Joplin with Indian spirituality;
of high illustrative merit, obviously.

The image is already a FP and POTD on EnWiki, so why not on Commons? Regards,Cinosaur (talk) 14:55, 7 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Neutral Not very fan on this one. I don't think this poster is special enough to be featured. Yann (talk) 04:54, 6 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comment I've added a rationale above making a case for the poster's notability. Regards, Cinosaur (talk) 02:48, 8 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]
