The Clash - Give ‘em Enough Rope US Promo Poster

Rare CBS, US promo poster (different font to UK release) for the Clash's difficult second album designed by Gene Greif.

Greif died in 2004. The following is from his New York Times obituary:

'Greif specialized in pop music and designed scores of album covers, including some for Phoebe Snow and the B-52's. But it was his cover for the Clash's album "Give 'Em Enough Rope," with its stark flat colors, messy faux-Japanese lettering and eerie image of a slain cowboy being eaten by buzzards while an enigmatic figure on a horse nonchalantly observes the feast, that influenced other punk album graphics. It helped introduce a postmodern graphic style noted for the reprise of passé images and found art.'

Condition: Good, (some wear & tear to edges)

Dimensions: 59 x 59cm
