‘Carries Diaries’ pays homage to iconic Post cover

All they had to do was call — we’d would have let them use the real thing!

The young Carrie Bradshaw, played by AnnaSophia Robb in “The Carrie Diaries,” had to read our classic “Headless Body in Topless Bar” headline in a Post knockoff called the New York Spectator.

In the scene, Robb picks up the daily papers, including a New York Times-style broadsheet called The New York Journal.

Producers of the “Sex in the City” prequel were only slightly off in their homage to The Post.

“Diaries” is set in 1984, with a 16-year-old Carrie Bradshaw getting her first taste of Big Apple life.

The Post’s “Headless” headline actually ran on April 15, 1983.

A rep for The CW network didn’t have the exact air date for the episode with the phony Post.

The second season of “Diaries” premieres on Oct. 25.
