From the personal collection of legendary rock photographer Barry Feinstein—a marvelous original semi-glossy 20 x 16 silver gelatin photograph of Bob Dylan standing in the doorway of the "L-S-D Partners Betting Office" in Nottingham, England. Signed and titled on the reverse in pencil, "Barry Feinstein, Bob Dylan (In front of betting office), Sheffield, England, 1966," beneath Feinstein's copyright stamp. In fine condition.
While romping in the streets of Nottingham on the way from Leicester to Sheffield on May 16, 1966, Dylan and his friends and film crew found the 'LSD Partners' betting establishment on Castle Boulevard. Feinstein famously shot an image of him in the doorway, thereby leading to much speculation about the use of hallucinogenic drugs by rock and rollers. The camera angles of Dylan's face, the Mercedes behind him, and the row of shops, including the betting shop and Pickfords Movers, make this a more visually interesting image than the better-known 'LSD Partners' portrait.
From the personal collection of Barry Feinstein and accompanied by a certificate 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 and signed during his lifetime, and deriving from his personal collection, is superior to those gallery offerings.
