Early 80s Punk Flyers
Archive of flyers and zines from one client who lived in DC for years, from the early days of DC punk at its rise with transitions from early hardcore days into bands such as Artificial Peace, No Trend, Bloody Mannequin Orchestra and others. Along with the flyers a small collection of fanzines and early Flipside magazines will be available.
When able, some anecdotes and comments about the shows will be added along with documented images to give you some background on the show. The photos will be credited to photographers unless from my client's personal archive of images they took.
All the flyers are original and are from my client's personal collection
