When I was about 10 or 11 I wrote to Mike asking for a signed photograph, addressing the letter care of the Virgin offices in London. It was quite a long time before I received a reply, but eventually this little beauty arrived. It was about 1986 or 87, before the release of Islands, so the printed discography on the back (which I'll attach in the next post) only goes up to The Complete Mike Oldfield. Anyone else seen or got one of these? Click to enlarge image Back to top

Same jump suit and shirt. http://www.chartstats.com/images/artwork/7673.jpg -------------- "There are twelve people in the world, the rest are paste" Mark E Smith Back to top
