DAVID BOWIE Hunky Dory Preview Pressing + BOWPROMO Sampler (This super rare set needs little introduction; comprising the very first GEM label preview pressing of the full Hunky Dory album, plus the legendary GEM label sampler LP also known simply by its catalogue number BOWPROMO, and a selection of facsimile press cuttings and photos from 1970/71 The Man Who Sold The World. This unique set comes housed in a vintage GEM stickered record mailer and was formerly the property of Bowie's short-term co-manager Don Powell. Don also managed Stevie Wonder and went on to discover The Jets.) See 'more info/tracklisting' for further details...)
