DAILY BOWIE THING – Day 80

“Wear your bolt with honour, make someone proud…” *

Back in the summer of 1974, an American music magazine published the full-page advert seen here, advertising that month’s big bargain: DAVID BOWIE’S “LIGHTENING BOLT” PENDANT-NECKLACE.

We’re presuming they meant “LIGHTNING BOLT”, but either way, the free offer also included a 10x8 glossy photo. The promotion was courtesy of MAINMAN and there were 500 of the BIJOUX lightning bolt pendant necklaces up for grabs.

We’re not sure what the glossy photo was, but we do know the necklaces were sent out in little boxes with MAINMAN stamped on them. Very hard to find now, the original BIJOUX necklace does command a pretty penny when it does turn up.

Were you one of the lucky recipients? Do you remember what the picture was?

When we announced #DailyBowieThing, we asked for suggestions including items we might be able to recreate for the Official Bowie Store. The necklace was among those suggestions and we’re happy to tell those of you who don’t subscribe to the Official Bowie Store newsletter, that the good folks over there have risen to the challenge and have produced the BOWIE BOLT REPLICA NECKLACE.

Though not free, they are retailing for a lot less than an original would set you back now.

* The original lyric taken from Win is of course: “Wear your wound with honour, make someone proud...”
