Bonhams Auction House is having a rock and roll auction and if you’re so inclined head over. Its not as pricey as one might guess and if you’re a collector of Grateful Dead memorabilia there’s tons of that.
The Art of Rock & Roll event, the auction house will be featuring items from bands including Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, Johnny Cash, Bruce Springsteen, Lou Reed, The Police, The Clash, Richard Hell, The Ramones, Ozzy Osbourne, The Grateful Dead, Bob Dylan, Jefferson Airplane, Journey, U2, Aerosmith, Pink Floyd and the Sex Pistols.
So what is ‘art’?
Paintings, drawings, sketches and studies, printing plates and poster sets. The work of famous rock artists, including Rick Griffin, Stanley Mouse, Jamie Reid, Alton Kelly and Randy Tuten, infamous in the rock art scene I presume.
But back to me.. I want
#187 Sex Pistols: A promotional poster for the single ‘God Save The Queen’,1977,
featuring Jamie Reid artwork/ design, Virgin, 27¼ x 39 inches-$800 to 1,000
and
#191 The Clash: A promotional poster for the album ‘The Clash’,1979,
featuring details of the release, CBS Inc., P-36060, 18 x 40 inches-$400 to 500
K, cool thanks!
