Jamie Reid Sex Pistols poster

The-sex-pistols

If you are looking to buy a piece of design history then this Sex Pistols poster by Jamie Reid that features in the upcoming Popular Culture auction at Christie's may appeal.

This was a promotional poster for the 1977 Virgin Records' single God Save The Queen, and is probably one of the most memorable campaigns that Reid designed, as its release coincided with the Queen's Silver Jubilee. The image of the Queen was taken from the official Jubilee portrait shot by Cecil Beaton.

The poster is sized at 69 x 99 cm and the estimate is £300 - £500, so get your bid in ready for the auction on the 1 July.
