Allen Bukoff's
work with
The Vertical Pillows
a Detroit rock band
1984 - 1986
When I moved to Detroit from Kent, Ohio, in the summer of 1984, I began looking for local bands and a scene in which I could continue "playing my game"--creating and distributing small pins and novelty packets. I quickly found an appealing band, a loud hard-rocking band of four young Detroit women called "Vertical Pillows," and I began to work with them.

Over a two year period I created more than half a dozen promotional novelty packets for The Vertical Pillows. I also created a portfolio book of my work for them. This portfolio is reproduced here and on the following eight pages.
