This collection of sixty-eight full-color reproductions is the first book to focus solely on Roy Lichtenstein's masterful Pop Art posters dating from 1960 to 1997.

Roy Lichtenstein's art is most recognizable for its trademark Benday dots and two-dimensional planes, cartoon-like qualities that placed him at the forefront of the American Pop Art scene.

This volume opens with his earliest poster, designed for his first exhibition at the Leo Castelli gallery in 1962, and closes with his last, which he completed in the year of his death.
