AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Set of 5 Signed Photographs – John Lennon & Yoko Ono – Top of the Pops Session – By Bill Zygmant**
Artist/Photographer: Bill Zygmant (British, b. 1945)
Subjects: John Lennon & Yoko Ono
Location: BBC Television Centre, London
Occasion: Top of the Pops shoot
Signature: Each photograph hand-signed by Bill Zygmant
Provenance: Direct from the photographer’s archive, via the seller who lived with Bill Zygmant (personal photos with Zygmant available for provenance; not included in the sale).
Description
A rare complete set of five original, hand-signed photographs of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, taken by Bill Zygmant during a Top of the Pops recording at the BBC.
These images capture Lennon in studio headphones at the microphone, wearing his denim jacket and patterned shirt, with Yoko Ono present in the background, blindfolded as part of her ongoing performance-art symbolism against censorship and war.
Bill Zygmant was one of the few photographers with close access to Lennon and Ono in the UK at this time. Signed prints from this TOTP session seldom appear, and a matched set of five is even rarer.
All five prints carry Zygmant’s signature in the same ink, forming a coherent and highly collectible group.
Dimensions (each print)
15 × 10 cm
All five photographs are the same size.
Condition
Good vintage condition:
• Light surface marks and small handling traces
• No tears or major defects
• Clear signatures on all prints
Please review all images carefully; they form part of the description.
Provenance
From the private material of Bill Zygmant himself.
The seller lived with Zygmant and received the prints directly from him.
Shipping
Secure, tracked, and insured shipping.
Photos will be packed flat with protective stiffeners.
