David Bowie signed Isolar cards

Hi Everyone...

Does anyone have any information on how the signed Isolar cards were distributed in the Black Tie/White Noise release?

Were they included in records, cd's, cassettes? How many were given out ? Any help would be appreciated

Thanks

The cards were signed in just a few sittings and exhibit extreme variation which is not unusual for him. I think 2 different pens were used. They are 3.5" x 5" IIRC and have a linen finish. The majority were preserved by an industry executive and sold after his death by a well known source - first at $149, then $199, then $249 and now I believe $385. I had about 10 and saw about 75. The fuller examples contain two "apostrophes" - one for the "i" and one by the date. The best IMO are those in the darker pen and the signature does not touch "WITH COMPLIMENTS".

The better examples usually contain the most strokes IMO. They also frame/display extraordinarily well - this was one of my favorites:
