1998

Portrait folio

HEADS · folio of 10 posters

1998 HEADS portfolio cover — a folio of ten Byrd head portraits, including Hendrix, Follies, and Godspell.

In 1998 Byrd issued HEADS: A Folio of 10 Posters — a portfolio whose cover is a new head-portrait plate, packaging ten of his head-centric designs.

Poster Child reproduces the preliminary sketch and the finished HEADS cover; the book names Hendrix, Follies, and Godspell among the ten head posters.

Gallery shows the cover, the 1998 preliminary sketch, and the strongest local head-portrait plates that match that folio language (not Radio City, not Looney Masterpiece acrylics).

Keep this stop distinct from the Looney Tunes Masterpiece Series (Warner Studio Stores acrylics) — HEADS is a portrait folio, not character licensing art.
