Los Angeles Rave Flyers, 1991-1994

Regular price $15.00

A collection of reproduced rave flyers produced for events in Los Angeles between 1991 and 1994, drawn from the collection of Victor Stapf of Synthetrix.

Flyers were critical to the spread of rave culture pre-internet. The dissemination of the printed pieces gave ravers information on where and when promoters would be organizing parties. To stand out, events needed to have distinctive artwork, illustrations, and/or typography.

The flyers are also important documents of subculture organizing, documenting locales, dates, artists, and organizations that were part of the rave community in Los Angeles.
