X-Ray
Spex Genuine 1977 Virgin VS189 ‘Oh Bondage Up Yours / I am A Cliché’ Promo
Poster
Mega Rare Opportunity to buy this original Record shop promotional
poster for the X-Ray Spex's debut single "Oh Bondage Up Yours!" which
was released in September 1977.
Singer-songwriter Poly Styrene was inspired to write the song after
seeing The Sex Pistols perform in 1976, informing the suggestive lyrics and
their articulation of capitalist materialism as a type of bondage. Although it
failed to make its mark on the charts, it quickly became a celebrated punk
anthem and is retrospectively hailed as one of punk's defining moments.
Poster size is 22” inches x 17” inches, and in overall good condition, with a few age-related folds and creasing throughout but would really suit being framed.
This is absolutely 100% original! - Not one of
the many A3 / A2 repros of this poster which appear on eBay all the time. Extremely Rare poster that will only appreciate in value. |
