THE SEX PISTOLS - GOD SAVE THE QUEEN, 1977.

Design by Jamie Reid.

Original Virgin promo poster.
30"x40"

Without doubt the single most memorable image to come from the Punk era. It's worth restating that what the media saw at the time as an incomprehensible and thuggish youth 'problem' was the vehicle through which Jamie Reid and Malcolm MacLaren produced the boldest and most coherent series of graphic statements ever seen in popular music.

Please inquire for availability - special bespoke frame.

JAMIE REID, 1977.

SEX PISTOLS - THE GREAT ROCK'N'ROLL SWINDLE, 1980.

Original British quad poster, unfolded.
