Book and Exhibition Launch File, 2005
Scope and Contents
A file containing two examples of a leaflet, which holds invitations for a dual event in connection to the Roger Law autobiography, Still Spitting at Sixty, held on 7 April 2005, at the Guardian's Newsroom Gallery. One event is sponsored by the book publisher, HarperCollins, and invites the recipient to attend the launch of the book. The other event is a private viewing of the exhibition accompanying the launch of the autobiography, and is sponsored by The Observer newspaper.
Also present is an optical disc that holds digital images of photographs taken at the Newsroom Gallery event, photograped by Susan Greenhill. Accompanying the disc is a note from 'Rachel,' a staff member at HarperCollins, who apologises to Roger for the delay in sending him the photographs. There is also another optical disc that contains scans of two photographic images: the Queen Elizabeth II and Prince Philip 'Club 50' illustration, previously used in Spitting Image Productions Limited publications, and an image of the Spitting Image Tony Blair puppet sitting on a chair.
