Artefact

Poster
The Men Of 992
Stockport College S.U.
1st May 1983

Ancient 992 poster. We plastered Stockport with these. The trick was to place them in difficult to reach places ie ridiculously high on walls and the back of roadsigns etc. Notice similarity to the early Biting Tongues posters..Stencils and Xerox machines were pretty much all that was available for "low budget band publicity"or Letraset lettering if you were posh. Its a bit of an Iron Lung photo further doctored.

“We didn't tend to put them up 2 years in advance so the date may be wrong (our brains were fried then so think what they must be like now)..it probably was 85 but who can tell? Sinful is usually more accurate about these things due to his avoidance of "Chemical Transportation" which was known to take place at some of our extended wacky tape sessions as Iron Lung (allegedly)”
“And I've already put this poster up, you numpty!
It was 1985 because I kept (and still do) a gig diary. At first to avoid conflicts of shift work and for the last ten years out of habit.”
