A very rare promotional poster made by CBS Records UK in April, 1977 to promote the release of the debut album by The Clash.

The artwork incorporates the album’s cover photograph and day-glo ink for a striking effect. The Clash’s debut was the second-ever punk album to be released (following The Damned’s debut by two months.) This poster is in excellent condition, with just the most minor wear, and a bit of faint moisture staining to the back, only visible on the front in the white area below the “T” in THE CLASH (a small faint area about half the size of an American quarter.)

This is only the second example we’ve ever seen of this rare poster—most were probably irretrievably plastered to walls on construction sites and subway stations around London. 20′ x 29 ¾’.
