Fall Poster 1982
Fall Poster 1982
Two colour hand printed screen print on 90 gsm yellow DayGlo paper. 20 × 30 inches (508mm x 762mm)
Designed by Fall drummer Karl Burns and Matthew Rich in 1982 using a magazine cutting Karl brought back from the Fall’s tour in Germany. The original was printed at Matthew’s printshop in Hulme, Manchester. This version is made from the original artwork and printed and signed in Glasgow by the original printer on (pretty much) the original paper at the original old-school size of twenty by thirty inches!
Several versions of this poster were made, often with details in the bottom panel of Fall gigs in and around Manchester. One of these is in the pictures above along with the original magazine cutting, printing happening in Glasgow and a photo of Duncan Prestbury and Karl Burns on one of the Hulme walkways.
