8245 - Mick Jagger Original 1967 Photograph from the Redlands Drug Case

Mick Jagger Original 1967 Photograph from the Redlands Drug Case Original 1967 semi-glossy 6.25 x 11.5 silver gelatin photograph of Mick Jagger smiling and stepping down from a doorway past a helmeted police constable, cigarette in hand. The reverse bears the stamp of photographer Harvey Mann, two "Daily Sketch" stamps, including one dated "11 May 1967," and editorial annotations. In fine condition, with light writing impressions from the reverse and a small crease to the lower left corner tip. The print bears a newspaper stamp dated the day after Jagger, Keith Richards, and art dealer Robert Fraser appeared before magistrates at Chichester, West Sussex, on May 10, 1967. The charges arose from the February police raid on Richards’s home, Redlands: Jagger was charged with possession of four amphetamine tablets, and Richards with permitting his home to be used for smoking cannabis resin. Jagger and Richards both pleaded not guilty and were released on £100 bail. On May 10, Brian Jones was arrested by police at his flat on Courtfield Road, South Kensington.
