Bowie hushed the audience and announced: “Everybody, this has been one of the greatest tours of our life. We really – first, I’d like to thank the band. I’d like to thank our road crew. And I’d like to thank our lighting people. Of all the shows on this tour, this particular show will remain with us the longest, because not only is it the last show of the tour, but it’s the last show that we’ll ever do. Thank you.” Only Mick Ronson had been told about this announcement prior to the concert whilst Woody Woodmansey and Trevor Bolder had not. The band played one final song, ‘Rock ‘n’ Roll Suicide’ after which David bowed three times, blew a kiss and left the venue – taking Ziggy Stardust with him.

Archive of <a href="https://www.sothebys.com/en/buy/luxury/collectibles/famous" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">photographs</a> from the London Features International press agency, documenting <a href="https://www.sothebys.com/en/search?query=David%20Bowie&amp;tab=objects&amp;sortBy=bsp_dotcom_prod_en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">David Bowie</a>'s career over an approximately 30-year span and focusing heavily on the later years of the 1970s.<ul><li>Sold as a set of 52 black and white photographs.</li><li>London Features International Press Agency.</li><li>Circa 1963-1991.</li><li>Agency stamps on verso; some photos also include dates and/or photographers' names in ink on verso. </li></ul> The earliest images show Bowie circa 1962-3 with his first band -- in performance, lounging alone with saxophone, or having his hair tousled by a Kon-rads bandmate in a posed group shot. From there, the archive progresses through the end of the 1980s, with the bulk of the collection concentrating on the mid- to late '70s as Bowie entered his Thin White Duke period and, through 1976-79, appeared to grow more glamorous and vampiric by the hour. Most images show Bowie in rehearsal or performance around the Station to Station / Berlin trilogy era(s) but a substantial minority capture him out and about, including one striking image from a Moscow street. Several pictures show Bowie with other famous (Keith Richards, Tina Turner, John McEnroe) or once-famous figures (the actress Sydne Rome). Many include a notation on the place or context, as well as date -- e.g.: "David Bowie at the play "Hurlyburly" at the Westwood Playhouse / Dec 2, 1988" -- and the vast majority of undated photographs can be easily placed within a year or two by tracking the width and enormity of the trousers. The latest-dated photograph in the collection was taken at the American Cinematheque's Moving Picture Ball at the Century Plaza Hotel, in 1991.
