He was also the last artist to produce an original series for the Fillmore. Singer's designs employ diverse collaged elements, drawn from both photographic and printed sources, to produce fantastic and often surreal scenes.","physicalDescription":"Psychedelic poster advertising a concert by Jethro Tull.  The central image features a image of an engraving of a girl placing a garland of flowers onto her head as she sits on a riverbank.  Collaged into this scene is a small, muscular figure, with its arms raised.  The text, which sits in the yellow border, reads, 'Bill Graham Presents in San Francisco, Jethro Tull except Sunday, Fairport Convention, Salt 'n Pepper - Cloud..
