"this is your brain on drugs" was a large-scale us anti-narcotics campaign by partnership for a drug-free america launched in 1987, that used two televised public service announcements and a related poster campaign. the 1987 (original) public announcement showed a man who held up an egg and said, "this is your brain," before picking up a frying pan and adding, "this is drugs." he then cracks open the egg, fries the contents, and says, "this is your brain on drugs." finally he looks up at the camera and asks, "any questions?" a shorter version of this, simply showing a close-up of an egg dropping into a frying pan, was used a few years later. measures 22 1/2 x 18 1/2 inches.
