Thanks to Puddletown aka Cheryl for spotting this 60s flower-power Peter Max-style Drexel bedroom set on Craigslist. It’s in Minneapolis, and it’s not cheap, but oh my goodness, this is the greatest bedroom set in the world! And, thanks to seller Molly for the photos — [link expired]– and click through to the next page for 5 more photos.

Oh. My. God. Worth every penny!!
I agree. There are A LOT of pieces. Two desks, two dressers, a bookcase, two beds, three nightstands, a stool, a corkboard, a mirror – oh, and don’t forget the telephone booth chair thingy! Amazing.
OMG! Fabulous… its what I always wanted as a kid… I hated that white princessy stuff they got me…
LOL! You say “It’s in Minneapolis” like that’s a bad thing.

Only because I’m not in Minneapolis – to snap this set up! I love Minneapolis, great city!
It’s like Sesame Street meets The Price is Right!
I want the phone booth! that’s awesome.
Calling John, Paul, George and Ringo! All that’s missing is a yellow periscope coming out of the headboard.
Love it love it love it! It looks like Rowan & Martin designed it.
wow i love it! looks right out of a movie or something, the phone booth chair is the best!
I’ve seen a couple of these sets around (or maybe the same set twice). I have the phone booth/ottoman. Very sturdy set by the way- not cheap kid’s furniture.
I believe mine is date-stamped 1972.
Seems to me there was also a flowery table with the same base as the night stands.
Did the 60’s Drexel Flower Power bedroom set sell already? If so, how much? If not, I am in Minneapolis and interested.
Hey, Julie, the link expired, so I think that means they’re gone. You gotta read Retro Renovation regularly to be ready to jump on the deals we spot….
Holy Crap! I HAD this set when I was little, only had an even weirder headboard with a creepy abstract head and footboards with toes! Don’t know what the parents were smoking when they bought it, but I sure wish my daughter had it now.
