Description

Photographer Barry Feinstein's original album cover proof for the back of Ike & Tina Turner's 1969 album The Hunter, showing several mannequins hanging from the ceiling. The color semi-glossy 13 x 13 photograph is affixed to its original 20 x 24 board, with a protective paper overlay featuring a label from Ted Staidle & Associates Photographic Color Reproduction, Los Angeles. In fine condition.

One of their most blues-oriented albums, The Hunter came during the blues revival of the late 1960s and features covers of classics like Albert King's 'The Hunter,' Guitar Slim's 'The Things That I Used to Do,' and Barbara George's 'I Know.' 'The Hunter' earned Tina Turner her first solo Grammy nomination for Best R&B Vocal Performance.

From the personal collection of Barry Feinstein and accompanied by a letter of authenticity from his estate. Barry Feinstein passed away in 2011, and since then his estate has offered posthumous estate stamped limited edition photographs from his archives; this example, printed during his lifetime and deriving from his personal collection, is superior to those gallery offerings.
