stuny Posted December 18, 2015 Share #1 Posted December 18, 2015 Advertisement (gone after registration) Auctioned by RM Sotheby's in New York a few days ago, Joplin's Porsche sold at a rather high price. One of her band's roadies painted it originally much as you see it here, and through photos, the previous owner restored it to that state. Ironic that her lyrics go, "Lord won't you by me a Mercedes Benz. My Friends all have Porsches, I must make amends." Welcome, dear visitor!

Guest Posted December 19, 2015 Share #4 Posted December 19, 2015 Auctioned by RM Sotheby's in New York a few days ago, Joplin's Porsche sold at a rather high price. One of her band's roadies painted it originally much as you see it here, and through photos, the previous owner restored it to that state. Ironic that her lyrics go, "Lord won't you by me a Mercedes Benz. My Friends all have Porsches, I must make amends." Last one. Indeed, very wonderfull. Porsche should have painted a replica for their museum at the headquarters at Stuttgart-Zuffenhausen. The original exemplar might be much too expensive for those frugal Swabians.

platypus Posted December 19, 2015 Share #8 Posted December 19, 2015 (edited) Beautiful car, great album cover....oh! the nostalgia. Interesting to see a Reg Mombassa/Mambo-classic-look-alike dude, with his halo and third eye, on the bottom left corner of the album cover.....graphics by R. Crumb and the album released in 1968....Reg ripped-off, or the inspiration for it all.....? Edited December 19, 2015 by platypus 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuny Posted December 19, 2015 Author Share #9 Posted December 19, 2015 MN, Alan, Mark, Gary, Phil, John & Dee - Thank you. The woman from California who you see in three of the photos was there to be interviewed by Danish TV about the car. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Her Berger Posted January 11, 2016 Share #19 Posted January 11, 2016 Jee, I'm dreaming of a M2 in this painting! That is a fu..ing great idea. I'm looking for a grungy M2 and paint it. J. Joplin and the Holding company, late 60th flowerpower or in R. Crumb style? Hm. Maybe I strip the camera a use a kind of enamel colours. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
