New Order poster
Manchester, UK: Factory Records, 1989
76.2 × 50.8 cm.
Edition size unknown
An offset color lithograph poster advertising the band's fifth and final album for Factory Records (who declared bankruptcy a few years later). The poster stands in stark contrast with the album cover, with it's day-glow colour graphic by resident Factory Records designer Peter Saville.
Against an estimate bid of between three and five hundred dollars, a copy of this poster recently sold through Wright Auction houses for $2,860 US.
