Original Queen 1991 promotional photograph featuring Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Roger Taylor and John Deacon in an official monochrome studio portrait issued by Parlophone Records during the release year of the landmark album Innuendo.
Taken in 1991, the final year of Freddie Mercury's life, this striking publicity portrait captures the band during one of the most significant periods of their career. Released to newspapers, magazines and broadcasters for editorial use, the photograph bears the Queen logo, 1991 Parlophone branding and a contemporary publicity credit to music publicist Simon Fowler, confirming its status as an official record company press photograph.
This example originates from the Shields Gazette photographic archive, where it was retained for editorial reference. The reverse is blank apart from a handwritten filing date of Jan '91, further supporting its provenance as an authentic period newsroom archive photograph rather than a later reproduction.
Original Queen press photographs from the Innuendo era are increasingly sought after by collectors, particularly those featuring all four members in official promotional portraits issued during Freddie Mercury's lifetime.
Very good condition with minor edge wear and light creasing consistent with age and archival handling.
Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
