Spitting Image Personnel and Premises, c 1980-c 1994
Scope and Contents
A box containing 22 sub-files that hold bundles of photographs, transparencies, contact prints and negatives; which focus either on Spitting Image personnel or on Spitting Image Productions Limited premises, such as the workshops at Limehouse Docks (early 1980s to c 1989), Plumbers Row (c 1989 to early 1994), and Cairo Studios (1994 to late 1990s/early 2000s). The personnel represented in this file include, but are not limited to: Roger Law, Peter... Fluck, John Lloyd, Jon Blair, Martin Lambie-Nairn, Tony Hendra, Tim Watts, David Stoten, Andy de Emmony and Rosie Hoare.
The majority of the photographic items present appear to be publicity material of personnel, either portrait shots or images that mostly feature Roger Law and Peter Fluck with various Spitting Image puppets. However, there are also images of staff working within a workshop's setting. There are also photographs of Roger Law attending the Saint Vincent Festival della Satira Teatrale e Televisiva, in May 1992.
Many of the photographic items or bundles are labelled with their original 'SI' reference number. Only a few of the photographers have been identified.
