Presenting for the FIRST TIME in a PAE auction this incredible piece of history from the band Queen! The story behind this poster is a good one. In November 1978 Queen released their seventh studio album  Jazz. Ahead of the album's release the band released their songs "Bicycle Race" and "Fat Bottomed Girls" as a double A-side. To promote the single Queen staged a bicycle race that was entirely made up of nude women. The start of the race was photographed and used to create this poster. The poster was included with the copies of Jazz that were sold in the U.K. The American release did not include the poster but did include an order form so that fans in the U.S. could purchase it if they wished. This is a historical poster that any Queen fan or poster collector would be lucky to own!
