1973 Japanese MCA Records/Victor Records promo poster for “Wishbone Four”
Original first printing Wishbone Ash promotional poster issued by MCA Records/Victor Records in Japan in 1973 to promote the release of the Wishbone Four album – as the title would suggest, the band’s fourth studio album, produced by the band members themselves, and originally released in May 1973 on MCA Records. It was the last studio album to feature founding member Ted Turner, who left the band after the tour supporting the new album. He would be replaced by guitarist and singer Laurie Wisefield for the next album, There’s the Rub (1974). Wishbone Four peaked at #44 on the Billboard 200. In the UK it reached a decent #12 and was certified Silver by the BPI (British Phonographic Industry) for sales exceeding 60,000 copies. The poster was for promotional purposes only, and was never made commercially available.
The poster measures 51.4 x 72.7 cm (approx. 20.2″ by 28.6″ inches) and is beautifully printed on thin, coated paper stock. In excellent unfolded condition with minimal handling wear.
