About the Item
"Sid Vicious Arrest" black and white photograph by Allan Tannenbaum. Image size: 9 x 13 inches. The text to the right of the photo reads: "Sid Vicious New York City 1978. At about 11 a.m. on October 12, 1978, the desk clerk at the Chelsea Hotel in New York City received a call from outside the hotel. A man, who did not identify himself, told the clerk, 'There's trouble in room 100.' The desk clerk called for an ambulance which arrived with a police escort. After the paramedics confirmed the woman was dead, police checked the room and found drugs and drug paraphernalia as well as a blood-stained Jaguar K-11 folding knife with a five-inch blade and a black jaguar carved into the handle. The couple had registered as Mr. and Mrs. John Ritchie, though they were not married. Simon John Ritchie was the man's real name, better known as Sid Vicious, punk superstar and former bass player for the infamous British band, The Sex Pistols. His deceased companion's name was Nancy Spungen. 'I stabbed her, but I didn't mean to kill her!' He was also heard muttering through his tears, 'She must have fallen on the knife.' Allen Tannenbaum took this photo of Sid outside the police precinct the day Nancy's body was found. Earlier that day, Allan visited the scene of the crime but was forbidden from taking any photos inside the hotel. Photograph ©2009 by Allan Tannenbaum from the book 'New York in the 70s.'" This photo was previously displayed in the original Hard Rock Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas, Nevada, and comes with a certificate of authenticity and a commemorative plaque to that effect.

Allan Tannenbaum
Allan Tannenbaum (American, b.1945) is an esteemed photojournalist and fine art photographer. Born in Passaic, NJ and a graduate of Rutgers University, Tannenbaum got his start taking pictures for his campus newspaper, The Targum. He later moved to New York and served as the chief photographer and photo editor for the SoHo Weekly News from its founding in 1973 until the publication closed in 1982. His documentation of New York art, music, and nightlife has become iconic, particularly his definitive coverage of the burgeoning 1970s punk scene. Tannenbaum’s work has also appeared in Newsweek, New York Magazine, Paris Match, and Rolling Stone, among others. Since the mid-1980s, he has covered political stories and campaigns on both the national and international stage, notably traveling to Kuwait and Iraq to document Operation Desert Storm. He has also exhibited his fine art photographs at numerous institutions, including the Pushkin Museum in Moscow, the Cité de la Musique in Paris, and Govinda Gallery in New York, and published several critically acclaimed photobooks, such as New York in the 70s(2003) and John & Yoko: A New York Love Story (2007). He continues to live and work in New York.
