David Bowie American Library Association Poster


From his forgotten "I'm Playing a Soc In Francis Ford Coppola's 'The Outsiders'" phase... The ALA blog found this poster in a 1989 catalog but it had been around for at least two years by then. Anyone have an educated guess as to what he's reading?

Modern celebrities who have posed for READ posters include Keira Knightley with PRIDE AND PREJUDICE, Tim Gunn with THE MAGIC MOUNTAIN, Jeffrey Dean Morgan with WATCHMEN and Shaquille O'Neal looking Photoshopped into his chair.

Found on fyeahreading.

My guess is that David Bowie didn't earn many varsity letters in his high school career. Certainly fewer than Shaquille O'Neal.

Do they give out varsity letters in the UK? Because that would be a significant disadvantage.
