Description

Original 1967 semi-glossy 8 x 10 silver gelatin press photo of Keith Richards in a close-up, with yellow editorial crop markings on the front. The reverse bears a "Central Press Photos Ltd." copyright stamp and an affixed typed caption, which reads in part: "Stones on Trial…Rolling Stone Keith Richard on his way to the West Sussex Quarter Sessions at Chichester today. Richard is charged with allowing his premises to be used for the smoking of Indian hemp." Also affixed is a newspaper clipping of the published image. In very good to fine condition, with light creasing and soiling.

The photograph was taken on the final day of the trial. On June 29, Jagger was sentenced to three months' imprisonment for possession of four amphetamine tablets; Richards was found guilty of allowing cannabis to be smoked on his property and sentenced to one year in prison. On July 31, the Court of Appeal quashed Richards's conviction and replaced Jagger's prison sentence with a conditional discharge.
