Jamie Reid with John Varnom — Never Mind the Bollocks, promotional poster, November 1977

Poster (997 x 651 mm). Old creases and abrasions primarily to lower quadrant, primarily marginal chips and closed tears, some of which repaired with tape, some scattered spotting and staining.

Each song on the album is represented by an individual graphic by Reid, all collaged together on the poster. The original collage for the song No Feelings is in the collection of Tate, London.

This poster includes a graphic that references the song Submission, which was only included on the 12-track issue of the album. This issue became available from the beginning of November 1977.
