Hong Kong Garden - Unrestored

SIOUXSIE & THE BANSHEES Hong Kong Garden (Super rare original 1978 vintage UK promotional silk-screened poster, measuring 31" x 26", for their debut single being released on 18 August 1978 by Polydor Records. Hong Kong Garden was one ofthe most important of the British Post-Punk hits early on, reaching number seven on the UK Singles Chart. According to Polydor Art Director Jill Mumford this original silk-screened poster is one of just 15 believed produced - this example is heavily creased down the right hand side with additional creases to the corners. There are multiple edge tears, including some paper loss & a large 2" tear bottom right. The poster has been stored flat & the main image remains unaffected from the defects highlighted, overall it would benefit greatly from professional restoration and conservation framing...)

Tracklisting & More Information

The following information is taken from former Polydor Art Director Jill Mumford's web site:

1978. The home made silk-screened poster was a small run, we think about 15, to promote the new single.

Phillip Sheffield is the silk-screen artist. The single Hong Kong Garden was their first release at Polydor Records where I worked as an Art Director. I designed the sleeve with the band.

My Hornsey Art college tutor Sid Day did the wonderful calligraphy lettering.

The Banshees brought in the image of Rose Lemoine, the ‘Gibson Girl’ from the Charles Addam’s book ‘Dear Dead Days’.

I also worked as Art Director on the album ‘The Scream’ with the Banshees and their manager Nils.
