$1,120.00

Jamie Reid (1947-2023) is a British artist best known for his décollage covers of the Sex Pistols’ albums Never Mind the Bollocks and Here’s the Sex Pistols, as well as their singles “Anarchy in the U.K.” and “God Save the Queen.” A self-described anarchist, Reid’s cover art helped define the aesthetic of the British punk movement through its faux-ransom-note letters and iconoclastic defacements of pop culture and nationalistic images. Born on January 16, 1947 in London, United Kingdom, he went on to attend the Croydon Art School where he met the future manager of the Sex Pistols. 
 
Famously known for the artwork to the Sex Pistols 'Never Mind The Bollocks' sleeve, which was the No.1 most voted for album cover of all time and is recognised by institutions like the MoMA for its cultural significance.

‘Anarchy In The U.K’ art was one of Reid’s earliest designs for the Sex Pistols. 'Anarchy in the U.K' was written and first performed in summer of 1976, and was released as the Sex Pistols's debut single by EMI on 26 November 1976. 
 
Taken from an original painting and printed in the Peckham offices of his radical political magazine, Suburban Press, this image was used to promote the band’s debut single, Anarchy in the UK. This is a silkscreen print of the very first promotional flyer Reid designed for the Sex Pistols and is a piece of punk history.
