Christmas shopping for an old school Manchester-obsessed music fan? We suspect these Factory Records pin badges at Polite Shop might go down well.
Sadly spotted too late for Christmas, which is a shame becauase this Factory Records Postcard Set would have made an ideal stocking filler for the music fan in your life.
This Peter Saville FAC-1 Limited Edition Print from V&A Shop is an absolute must for any fan of the iconic Factory Records.
If the price of the photography prints was a bit rich for your blood, you can now pick up Kevin Cummins' classic pop culture images in postcard form, courtesy of the Archive 2: Manchester by postcard set.
Archive 2 is the latest themed set of postcards (Archive 1 took in Liverpool in the 1970s and 1980s), focusing in on the pick of Manchester's past – The Fall, The Stone Roses, Morrissey, The Smiths, Buzzcocks, Magazine, Happy Mondays, Tony Wilson, Peter Saville, Alan Erasmus, Joy Division, New Order, Bernard Sumner, Liam Gallagher and the The Haçienda on those 16 postcards.
£12 secures you a set and if this is your kind of thing, a limited edition Joy Division set is coming soon. Another image from the set over the page.
