100% ORIGINAL SUPER RARE VINTAGE NEWSWEEK UNPUBLISHED ISSUE JOHN LENNON OF THE BEATLES ADVERTISING POSTER. . THIS PHOTO WAS USED ON THE COVER ISSUE OF NEWSWEEK DEC 22, 1980 RIGHT AFTER HIS DEATH. BUT THE INTERVIEW FOR NEWSWEEK TOOK PLACE IN SEPTEMBER BEFORE HIS DEATH, AND TALKS ABOUT HIM DOING A COME BACK FOR HIS SON. I BELIEVE THAT NEWSWEEK WAS TO PUBLISH A JAN 1981 ISSUE USING THIS PHOTO, AND THE INTERVIEW. BUT DAYS AFTER HIS DEATH THEY CHANGED THE ISSUE RELATING TO HIS DEATH USING THE SAME PHOTO IMAGE ON THE COVER FOR THE DEC 22, 1980 ISSUE. IF YOU NOTICE ON MY ADVERTISING POSTER IT IS DATED 1981.  THIS POSTER WHICH WAS MADE FOR SUBWAY OR BILLBOARD WAS TO BE USED FOR ADVERTISING THAT JAN, 1981 ISSUE THAT WAS NEVER PRINTED DUE TO HIS SUDDEN DEATH.  GENUINE John Lennon NEWSWEEK Poster December 22, 1980 EXTREMELY RARE POSTER - NEGATIVE DESTROYED !At the bottom of the Poster, near the Newsweek logo, there this a poignant quote from John Lennon: "Q: Why did you decide to record again? A: Because this housewife would like to have a career for a bit! On October 9th, I'll be 40 and Sean will be 5 and I can afford to say, 'Daddy does something else as well.' He's not accustomed to it— in five years I hardly picked up a guitar. Last Christmas our neighbors showed him 'Yellow Submarine" and he came running in, saying 'Daddy you were singing... were you a Beatle?' I said, 'Well—yes, right.'" Historic Poster!
