A one‑page Melody Maker advert promoting David Bowie’s album Station to Station, released at the height of his Thin White Duke period. The design pairs stark typography with a monochrome still from the album’s photo session, presenting Bowie as a figure of precision, detachment, and cinematic cool. RCA positions the album as a major artistic moment, emphasising Bowie’s new film role in The Man Who Fell to Earth and the success of “Golden Years.”
