Cigarette brand Lucky Strike commissioned Keith Haring to design a series of posters & advertisements for them in 1987. In turn, Haring submitted 10 pieces in his trademark and unique style, 9 of which were accepted. The 10th piece, Haring wrote in his diary, depicted a smoking skeleton, which Lucky Strike executives were not too pleased with.

5 of the pieces were selected to be printed as limited edition screen prints, and 3 were also released as posters.

These original pieces from 1987 are screen printed with 5 colours on thick art stock paper by Serigraphie Uldry Bern of Switzerland and are plate signed by Haring - An original first release, these pieces were created in a limited run of 2000.
