PECULIAR TO MR BOWIE : A Day With David Bowie. 1971 by John Mendelssohn New photobook! Limited 48 page souvenir photobook by rock n' rollin' author/artist/photographer/journalist/bon vivant John Mendelssohn, who was tapped to meet up with an unknown longhair from London named David Bowie on his first trip to the US on a press junket for the just-released Mercury album The Man Who Sold The World. John met up with DB in San Franscisco with his camera in tow, and started snappin and yappin. This book includes John's original story from Rolling Stone, his revelations and jubilations on (and of) the topic of DB, plus we have Paul Gorman writing brilliantly about the origin and influence of the man-dress, as created by bespoke tailor Mr. Fish of London... and we have the photos, one roll of film that captured both Mr Fish man-dresses-- the luxe, flowing, floral that appeared on the . With this photobook comes a wee fragrance called simply, Peculiar. It is a refined scent, reminiscent of old London, with a hint of lavender, suitable for all persuasions. Concocted from organic Canadian floral waters and contained in a lovely souvenir bottle. The fragrance is a limited free bonus with the book on presales while they last.
Archival prints will be available in mid-November. Excellent for the holidays!
