After writing the song "Teach Your Children" in 1968 and recording it, Graham Nash discovered this photograph in a San Francisco gallery and found that it related to the song's message about nonviolence. The photograph was used, without permission, on the first version of the cover of Canadian punk band SNFU's 1984 album "And No One Else Wanted to Play" after the band "found the picture in the library." The image is also used on the cover of American indie rock band Cloud Cult's debut album "Who Killed Puck?". An original print of the photograph sold for $408,000 in April 2005 at Christie's in New York.
