Fans of The Muppet Show will lose their minds when viewing these amazing Michael De Pippo Retro Muppet Concert Posters. Pippo's posters are a series of pictures designed after the Muppet rock band Dr. Teeth and The Electric Mayhem.
The series consists of five posters with one poster for each member of the band. The posters are reminiscent of the posters advertising rock shows in the 60s and 70s. Each poster is simple and has a style that should appeal to art, music and Muppet fans. So far the reaction to Pippo's posters has been overwhelmingly positive. The artist plans to print a series of posters, which may be released in time for the upcoming Muppet movie. In the meantime, viewers can check out all of the posters from the Retro Muppet Concert Posters series here.
