The Pistols signed for EMI in October 1976, with first single 'Anarchy In The UK' released 26th November. But the Grundy affair and other misdemeanours rapidly cooled EMI's enthusiasm, and the band were dropped in January. The original flag, photographed by Ray Stevenson, was very small (an 8 inch by 4 inch tatty souvenir flag), but suitably pinned, clipped and distressed Jamie knew he had a potent image on his hands. This original poster is very scarce.
