The Raconteurs "Consolers of the Lonely" Studio Album Prop

Item Details

Notes from Third Man Records Archivist Ben Blackwell:
_Very cool, borderline badass Raconteurs prop shield used for the cover shoot for the ‘Consolers Of The Lonely’ album. Surprised that someone was able to sneak red and white stripes in here, but the fact that the pic was black-and-white clearly obscured the fact. Doesn’t it feel kinda weird to see a color picture of something you’ve only ever known in black and white? Would this phenomenon been more or less prominent in the eariy 20th century? Food for thought. Anyway, this is featured prominently on panel 3 of the tri-fold depiction of the tin-type photograph best experienced in the LP format. We’ve held on to this long enough, no is as good as time as ever to let go. Someone out there will really love this thing, we know it. _
