Drop City Revisited: What Happened to America's First Hippie Commune

A solar heater made from rocks gathered at Colorado’s Purgatory River once warmed a dome at Drop City.

That small 1968 experiment tells a bigger story: an artist-built commune near Trinidad turned salvaged materials, geometry, and shared living into an alternative vision—then learned how quickly publicity and overcrowding can overwhelm an open-door dream.

Read how Drop City rose, collapsed, and still shapes the way we talk about sustainable living:

When we got to SF and visited friends, they pulled out this brand new album and played it. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1AhtLJmAXx/

Once the band made the decision that this was to be the front of their new album cover, the art department at Columbia Records reduced the masthead “Cheap Thrills” and also “Big Brother & Holding Co.” and moved both to the right in order to make way for the Columbia record label.
When Wildwood Serigraphs published the 250 print serigraph edition (signed, dated and numbered by Crumb) in 1997, they decided to eliminate the Columbia label and restore the artwork as it originally appeared. This is what the serigraph–and subsequent giclée edition–looks like.
