On July 7 1984, Warner Bros. Records took out a full-page ad in Billboard magazine to congratulate Madonna on the Gold certification of her self-titled debut album.
The ad featured the first look at a new photo shoot Madonna had recently completed with Steven Meisel. This image would later appear on the back cover of her next album, Like A Virgin.
Today In Madonna History 
And no wonder! Like a Virgin-Madonna’s giant leap into rock & roll, stardom and immortality!
Love that they were already using LAV Promo shots to promote the MADONNA album. Nearly 4 months before the release of LAV.
