Original Unseen Black Sabbath Promo Shot
This early press photograph of the four members of Black Sabbath on a grass verge outside my house is currently on display at Wednesbury Museum and Art Gallery.
The picture is from my personal collection of negatives, many of which have been unseen for 40 years.
