Individually bound in a black leather cover with free gold embossing
Created from newspaper articles with stunning pictorial sections
Tabloid size edition (31 x 38cm)
An exclusive piece of David Bowie memorabilia, this Personalised David Bowie Life Book, which is exclusive to Historic Newspapers, is crammed full (130 pages!) with insightful newspaper articles about his musical career, acting roles, marriages, battles with drug addiction and eclectic fashion sense. What’s more, there are extensive pictorial sections showing Britain’s most iconic music star during his early years, right through to his later life.
The Personalised David Bowie Newspaper Book opens with an article from 1973 containing interviews with David Bowie and his first wife Angie, who is expecting their son – Zowie. Bowie’s controversial dress sense, sexual orientation and drug-fuelled on-stage antics through the 70s feature heavily in the book. By the 80s, stories of a cleaner, more focused Bowie can be read, with the main focus being on his budding acting career, further successful studio albums and charitable work.
In later years, David Bowie remarries and starts a family in the US which is covered extensively. There are also many rumours and speculations about the deterioration of Bowie’s health for many years, leading up to his eventual death in January 2016. The extensive tributary articles about his life and works after his passing end the book. Beautifully bound in a personalised leather cover, the book will make a special gift for any fan, and a truly thrilling read.
