CATALOGUE
A flyer should be readable, not just visible
Each future scan will include both sides where available, a transcription of the line-up and practical details, and links to the matching event and tape pack records.
Dates printed on original material are valuable evidence, but corrections and later amendments will be noted rather than silently overwritten.
BROWSE
The visual language of the night
The collection will be organised around evidence and design.
Names in type
Line-up hierarchy, arena branding and dense information became a recognisable graphic language.
Objects with a history
Creases, stamps and handwriting can form part of an item’s provenance and should not automatically be removed.
CONTRIBUTIONS
