I can't access your images at the moment, but I can confirm that a 1970 King Crimson poster for 'Cat Food' single does exist as Island were pushing hoping that it would be a big hit.

Indeed it does...I saw one years ago on eBay, and it only went for about US $50 - $70, as I recall, but it's flyer size, and essentially, the same as the "Cat Food" picture sleeve...with the retail information below.

Here is a picture of an HMV London shop window from Summer '69...in the lower middle, there appears to be a shop poster for ITCOTCK (the band shot):

I have Island posters for Roxt's FOR YOUR PLEASURE, all four 'vocal''rock' Eno records...and Roxy's SIREN (UK)...

A promo poster for "In The Court Of The Crimson King" would be the dog's bollocks. I'd consider sascrificing a limb for that poster in the HMV shop.

I do have the US Atlantic shop poster for RED, but that's fairly common. It's cool, but really just a straight 24" x 24" blow-up of the album cover...the one pictured at that HMV is a nifty shot of the first (and IMHO) greatest version of the band...

It would be lovely. Doesn't have to be the true original. Just that big moonface on a quality poster would do me, something tasteful and true to the original theme. It would have an assured home in the den.
