Vogue
Promotional Items
For the full narrative of 'Vogue' please refer to the entry under the SINGLES tab
'Vogue' provides the collector with a good selection of promotional items to collect. In addition to the usual items issued to promote the single there are also items which contain the single as part of a promotional push for 'Immaculate Collection', the greatest hits package that appeared later in the year. They are all included here for ease of reference.
Those items specifically connected with the single include the usual 7" with rear promo sticker and also a more collectable 7" white label. In addition, there is also a 12" white label with a SAM 659 catalogue number. This is probably the most common of all the official white labels. Harder to find is a much rarer white vinyl test pressing for the 12" picture disc.
There is also an in-store compilation cassette in the new design which is used for all subsequent promotional cassettes until their demise in 1991 in favour of the CD format.
'Vogue' is included on several compilation items all of which come in unique custom sleeves which makes for a more attractive item from a collecting viewpoint. The first is a very hard to find 1990 CD (SAM 939) issued towards the end of the year and cleverly titled 'No More Silent Nights'. It also contains an image of 'Immaculate Collection', among other albums covers, on its cover.
This was accompanied by an compilation video with the equally witty title of 'Twelve Plays for Christmas'.
As a testament to 'Vogue's staying power, it was still being included in a further compilation CD (SAM 916) issued a year later in autumn 1991 with another pun-heavy seasonal title: 'Ten Titles To Fall For'.
Paper based promotional items include the counterstand for the 7" single. It is worth noting that from hereon the counterstands are produced in greater numbers than previously and this is reflected in the valuations. After a hiatus on display flats, there are no fewer than three for 'Vogue', namely a 12" display for the new single, a 7" display flat for the 7" picture disc, and a 12" display flat for the 12" picture disc.
There is also an unusual tactic - a promotional poster to promote a poster i.e. the so-called 'X rated' poster that was issued as part of a limited edition 12".
The paper based items are once again rounded off with the adverts that appeared in the musical press - two versions are available.
Finally, with the video being one of Madonna's most iconic, it is not surprising that it features heavily on promotional material. See the VIDEOS tab for all six promotional videos, with the two videos that only include 'Vogue' shown below:
1. 'Vogue' - WEA in-store promotional video
