Mugwump
1994

A sort of publicity shot for Mugwump somewhat influenced by the Iron Lung photo sessions of old. Mr Sbilts is modelling a Swedish Tank Drivers helmet purchased at Glastonbury Festival and a Tank Crew one piece suit and holding a Quick Disc the storage medium employed by Akai on its X7000 Sampler amongst others which went quickly obsolete. Mr Gleaves (centre) is sporting a top hat, Gasmask and motorcycle waterproof overall and fingerless gloves whilst holding a multicoloured brolley( which is bad luck to have open according to legend ). Captain Falldown (Steve Clarke) is wearing a Doctor Doom mask and holding an oar (as you do).Its the old airbulb method of photographing and that is clutched firmly in Sbilts's right hand. I miss my old cellar..........
