Before the days of social media and the internet, Weeds Tavern’s
host and bartender Sergio Mayora attracted a loyal, diverse, and
eclectic crowd to the bar with his unique and vibrant collage
poster art promoting the tavern. These advertisements were
singular cut-and-paste works of art. From 1988’s “Weed’s
Pollution Night” to 2004’s poetry night “Making America Safe
in the War Against Censorship,” many of Mayora’s posters
predicted the world we are living in today. Echoing the
bright colors and catchy phrases of Mayora’s poster art, Weeds
Tavern: Poster Art of Sergio Mayora collects over 40 of these
iconic posters that once adorned the phone booths and streetlamps
of Chicago’s streets. Featuring text by celebrated Chicago
journalist Dave Hoekstra and a foreword by award-winning actor and
Weeds patron Michael Shannon, this book is sure to delight both
those who frequented Weeds and those who wish they could have been
part of the magic.
