68.5 x 97 cm (27 x 38.2 in)

Artist Proof 3/5

This version of Reid’s most iconic of artworks is an archive favourite. Many unused versions were trialed, using Peter Gudgeon’s original photograph that had been reproduced in the Sunday People on February 6th 1977 under the banner ‘Nice Work By A Nice Lady” (original cutting also held in the Jamie Reid Archive). Versions with teacups, pot roses, swastikas and a knife were trialed. This version was actually used for a bus campaign during the promotion for the Sex Pistols single, sowing both confusion and no doubt glee within those few who knew what was going on.
