Suck My Dick Mug
SOLD OUT
This singular mug celebrates an iconic image taken from Nick Cave’s 1998 photoshoot with Polly Borland, echoing the design and presidential blue colour of the T-shirt worn in the resulting photograph.
`Back in 1998, I was set to do a photo shoot with my dear friend and photographer, Polly Borland. My manager at the time, Rayner Jesson - sadly no longer with us - asked me into his office. He suggested that perhaps I should not be photographed wearing a suit, that the suit thing was getting a bit boring, and I should be more down with the kids and wear something a bit more contemporary. I suggested, in no uncertain terms, that he could suck my dick.
Next day, I was doing the shoot - in a suit - and Rayner, never one to miss an opportunity to cause a bit of a ruckus, marched into the studio with a t-shirt that said ‘Suck My Dick’ on it.
“You mean like this?” he said.
I threw on the t-shirt, just because I loved the guy (and the t-shirt actually) and Polly took the shot.
In memory of the great and genuinely anarchic Rayner Jesson I have created a variety of Suck My Dick items for your pleasure including this a Suck My Dick mug. Enjoy!´
