Description

  • David Bailey
  • Double Portrait of John Lennon & Paul McCartney, c. 1969
Vintage silver print, mounted with various inscriptions on the reverse of the board.

Literature

Bailey, D. 1969.

Catalogue Note

This appears to be the very print used for reproduction in Goodbye Baby and Amen. Variants are reproduced elsewhere but only this one matches the printed image. An inscription on the reverse asks for the print to be returned to David Puttnam Associates. The young David Puttnam (whose father was a press photographer of distinction) set up his agency in the heart of swinging London in 1964 and represented Lord Snowdon as well as David Bailey for a few years thereafter.
