Banned poster now worth $500

   This poster stirred controversy (I like my controversy shaken, not stirred - Chimples) in 1967 in Montreal.
   The poster (which you can buy for a mere $500 online) was postered around the city and then ordered removed by Mayor Drapeau, who found it too rude.

   The Expo '67 authorities kept it up in spite of the ban. Muriel Milllard, by the way, is apparently still among us. She launched a singing and vaudeville career at a young age and became quite prominent for a while.

    Poster for a show at Expo. A bit racy for the time.
