Scarce Sex Pistols Poster for Their Final Tour in the UK -- Poster Full of Quotes by Venues Stating They`re Not Welcome
Poster promoting the Sex Pistols` last shows in the UK: their ``Never Mind The Bans`` tour. The poster`s designer Jamie Reid puts the punk band`s image to work, proudly displaying a collage of rejection letter clippings from venues that refused to host them. One reads: ``...The unfortunate reputation they have gained seems to bring in its wake inevitable scenes of violence and resulting damage...`` Slated to play eight shows in the UK from 16-25 December 1977, the turmoil-laden band had to cancel half of them and would never play the UK again. Sid Vicious would die of a heroin overdose on 1 February 1979 at age 21. Very large poster measures 26`` x 38``. Toning, creasing, and scattered tears to edges and separation at fold intersections. In very good condition in a plain black frame. A scarce Sex Pistols poster from the height of their punk rock reign. With provenance from Christie`s.
Starting Price: $3000
