Looking into printing methods it made sense to use screen printing for this design. If the poster were to be made in the 1970s when this event took place it would have been screen printed as this would be the quickest and cheapest method to get a three colour print out to the world. The print would have to be printed in three different sections but would still be the best method for the time. Layering the colours would give a traditionally printed look that you no longer get with digital print, happy accidents occur less and less meaning that there isn't any surprise to the process, it is more efficient but screen printing can sometimes take a design to another place making it more desirable.
