Ultra rare oversized hologram sheet created for the cover of Prince’s 13th studio album, Diamonds and Pearls, 8.5 x 7.5, which depicts Prince posing with dancers Lori Werner and Robia LaMorte, who were known as Diamond and Pearl. In fine condition. An exceptionally rare oversized hologram created for Diamonds and Pearls, examples of which were never commercially released.
Accompanied by a signed letter of authenticity from Jeff Gold, the owner of Recordmecca and a former executive vice president/general manager of Warner Bros. Records, who worked closely with Prince during the 1990s and art directed numerous album covers for him, including Diamonds & Pearls, Love Symbol, and The Hits/The B-Sides. The letter reads: “This letter is to authenticate a large-scale prototype hologram made during the production of Prince's 1991 album Diamonds and Pearls. I art-directed a number of Prince's album covers, including Diamonds and Pearls, which featured a hologram on the cover. In order to produce the hologram, we had to do a film shoot of Prince and his dancers, moving in the specific way he envisioned. During the design process, the hologram company sent me different versions of the hologram, including this large-scale one, which has been in my personal collection since 1991.”
