Description
Rare Genuine 1974 RCA David Bowie Promotional poster for the album Diamond Dogs. The cover features a painting by Guy Peellaert in which the singer is featured as a kind of centaur except he’s half-man/half-dog instead of half-man/half-horse. Fearing controversy, RCA records withdrew the records and ordered the artwork to be reproduced with the canine genitalia airbrushed out.
Original RCA Mainman Records promo poster, Huge Overall Size 41"x 37" inches approx. Artwork by Guy Peellaert. Very minor scattered creases throughout the image, but it looks absolutely stunning when framed. This poster has been removed from its frame and will be sent out in a heavy duty postal tube.
PLAYBOY Magazine: Is it true that Jagger once told you he was hiring the French artist Guy Peellaert, and you ran right off to hire Peellaert for your own album, Diamond Dogs, which was released first?
BOWIE: Mick was silly...I went over to his house and he had all these Guy Peellaert pictures around, so I immediately phoned him up. Mick's learned now, you’ve got to be a bastard in this business.
A VERY RARE AND COLLECTIBLE ITEM FOR THE DAVID BOWIE FANS OUT THERE - WHICH IS SURE TO RISE IN VALUE IN THE FUTURE!
