Guest vinylvixen Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Dear All, the date is drawing nearer for the Island 50th anniversary. I've been helping with the book and now we're onto the exhibition....and it's contents. This is where you all come in - I need some gaps filling and maybe, just maybe, some of you will have something stashed away in your vast personal archives OK, eyes down - I need anything along the lines of programmes, ticket stubs, posters, handbills/ flyers, photos, t-shirts, promo items, picture sleeves to do with the following artists - but all originating in the UK. However insignificant you may think it is, let me know and I'll cast my beady eye over it....

I'll have a rummage and see what I can find. I've still got my Millie Small 12" which I reissued on the 25th anniversary as it was the record which started it all off for Chris Blackwell and I think it may be the only time it actually came out on Island as it was originally issued on Fontana, so a nice little bit of history there - see scan. Have you spoken with Susette Newman? She'll probably have an archive of everything......... Will PM ya and see what I can dig out....... And I will require an invite LOL!

Think its a address in London, all i can read is, think its " s mart" and the other bit i can read is London, and above that there is a word that ends i think in ello or euo? its to smudged.
