: fly - the art of the club flyer" (Ackland-Snow, Brett, Williams - Thames and Hudsom, 1996)
: P.S Are theree many examples of flyers from 1988 ?
very few, tho the dates are sometimes suspect - eg there's a "Return of.. Shoom Club" at the Fitness Centre in Crown Street with Colin Favor and Danny Rampling which is described as "Jan 1993" (??)
also it's more designer/club orientated (rather than warehouse/illegal parties) - there's a few flyers from the mid 80s (such as "Nite Raid" at the 100 Club (1985), and "Philip Sallons Birthday Ball" (Nov 1986)
the other book worth checking is "highflyers - clubravepartyart" (Phil Beddard/Brian Parkes - Booth-Clifford Editions, 1995) - again it's very designer/club orientated and they have a few flyers from the mid-80s & earlier - and a lot of the dates have the wrong year - the above mentioned Shoom flyer is down as January 1989 (??)
(Anton, if u want more specific details e me)
