An original news service photo of Alice Cooper from 1973. In the photo, Cooper, who is considered to be the Godfather of Shock Rock is holding a sword with a girl doll impaled on it. The musician attempted to portray anger over being jilted by a lover. By 1973, the Alice Cooper Band was among the most popular acts in rock after releasing their platinum-selling album, Billion Dollar Babies. The photograph of Cooper has been authenticated as Type I and encapsulated by PSA. A UNIPIX description of the image has been taped to the back of the item. Still performing today, Cooper has enjoyed a nearly 60-year career in the music industry.
