The legendary rock and Metal photographer Mark Weiss has donated ten pairs of signed prints for a charity auction supporting the Middletown Township Cultural and Arts Council.
The auction includes Led Zeppelin and Kiss photos from 1977, Van Halen in 1984, Guns N’ Roses in 1987 and Aerosmith’s Steven Tyler in 1982 and 1985. All are printed on archival pigment print and signed by Mark. For more details, visit charitybuzz.com/support/middletowntownshipcouncil
Weiss, who recently released his book The Decade That Rocked, The Music and Mayhem of ’80s Rock and Metal, was arrested and thrown in jail in the late ’70s for selling his images outside a Kiss concert. His first job at Circus magazine followed, and from that point, he went on to create many of the most iconic images in rock and Metal history.
The Decade That Rocked is a 378-page treasure trove of history, split year by year, which shows the flood of sex, spandex, music, makeup, and mayhem that hit the 80’s Metal scene like a hurricane. This exciting book is available from thedecadethatrocked.com
Several bundles are available on his website, and Mark is currently offering a free signed gallery print of Ozzy Osbourne and Randy Rhoads with current orders. See Mark’s Facebook post below for details.
