searching for 3-headed prince cartoon from 80's- Time? Rolling Stn?

I have been looking for this for years.
In the late 80s there was a caricature line drawing of a 3 headed prince, each head with a different expression on his face. It was AWESOME!

However, I've tried searching for it online and cant find it.
I think it was in either Time, Rolling Stone, or The New Yorker (that's a stretch).


Is anyone familiar with this drawing?
I'd appreciate any suggestions on where to look. Prob end up @ the Library looking at microfish. sad

Ah, that's a good one but it isn't it.

This was a black and white line drawing with 3 separate heads (I think)....very much in the style of the people who DO caricatures of celebrities in those magazines. I'm gonna say with 89 percent confidence that it was actually in Time or Rolling Stone.

But thanks for the suggestion. And quick too!

This is not what you're looking for, but it's along the same lines.

It's from an old bootleg. It is scary, but I love it for it's bizarre factor.

Boy I remember flipping through the Prince "Imports" section
back in 89 and seeing this for the first time!
It was the first Prince live bootleg I had ever seen/got.
I was floored. faint

I hate how cartoons depicting of Prince always seem to try to make him seem overtly feminine or even look bad. Anyone agree?
