Question by Nick M: What is the name of this historic photograph and where can I find it for purchase?
I am looking for the photograph taken I believe during the 1960’s (1967?). It is a photograph of a National Guard and “Hippie” confrontation where the “Hippies” are putting flowers in the barrels of the National Guardsmen guns.
If any one could give me detail of the name of the photograph, and where I can find it. I also welcome any other useful information about this photograph that could help me find it such as the location and date, ETC.
Thank you for all help.

It’s called “Flower Power” and it was taken by Bernie Boston. It was taken on October 22, 1967.
The last original photograph that I saw at auction was found in the archives of a newspaper and brought $ 250,000.
It may be a while before another is available for sale.
