- Description
Shows Rowling with angel wings leaping off the ground in prayer. Behind him ministers form the 'Clergy for Rowling' choir.
'All God's chillun got left wings' is a reference to the title of Eugene O'Neill's 1924 play 'All God's chillun got wings'. The 'Clergy for Rowling' refers to an offshoot of the group 'Citizens for Rowling', which consisted of well-known New Zealanders (among them Sir Edmund Hillary and Bishop Paul Reeves) who were in support of the much-criticised Rowling in the run-up to the 1975 general election.

Published in 'Grant, Ian F. Public Lives - New Zealand's Premiers and Prime Ministers 1856-2003 (Book title)' 2003.
