Artefact

Poster
Manchester Polytechnic Cavendish House
1972

I've uploaded this rather stunning poster to draw your attention to the utterly fascinating Visual Resources @ MMU Flickr archive. It's rammed with amazing images of 1960s and 70s Manchester and the surrounding areas. Hit the link below to have a look.

MMU says:

Poster for a concert by the Dutch rock group Focus at Manchester Polytechnic Students' Union on 1 November 1972. The Students' Union was then housed in Cavendish House, now called the Righton Building.

Poster reproduced by courtesy of Richard Betts.

If you look closely you'll see the words 'Hocus Pocus' in reverse on the black-and-white background to the word 'Focus'.
