Jamie Reid
God Save the Queen gummed sticker.
(140 x 105mm.)
This design shows the Peter Grugeon Jubilee portrait of the Queen used as a tablecloth for a Jubilee cup of tea, framed by Reid’s ransom note logos for the band and the song. This otherwise low-key yet subversive sticker by Jamie Reid confronts the Sex Pistols song with all the trappings of Jubilee tea party.
