1978 Japanese King Records/Jet Records/United Artists promotional poster for “Out of the Blue”
Original first printing Electric Light Orchestra promotional poster issued by King Records/Jet Records/United Artists in Japan in the 1978 to promote the release of the Out of the Blue album – the band’s seventh studio album, released on 3rd October, 1977. Recorded at Musicland Studios in Munich and produced by Jeff Lynne, Lynne wrote the entire album in three and a half weeks after a sudden burst of creativity while hidden away in his rented chalet in the Swiss Alps. Out of the Blue is among the most commercially successful records in the group’s history, selling about 10 million copies worldwide. The album had an amazing 4 million pre-ordered copies and quickly went multi-Platinum upon release. The poster was for promotional purposes only, and was never made commercially available.
The poster measures 72.6 x 51.3 cm (approx. 28.6″ by 20.2″ inches) and is beautifully printed on thin, coated paper stock. In excellent unfolded and unmarked condition. Feel free to email us with any questions you may have concerning this item. Additional images of the poster available on request.
