Clifford Richards made this silkscreen print of parrots in the 1960s. It started as wrapping paper for kids, part of a fun set by Polypops Products Limited. The print stays bright and playful, like Pop Art at its most cheerful. Three designers worked on the products. Richards handled the graphics while others did furniture and toys. His labels and papers from this era are still remembered fondly. Check out another Clifford Richards design next.
