MAY 2024

Hello friends, 

My NEW batch of FORTNIGHTLY auctions & Buy It Nows will be completed by the end of Monday May 6th so PLEASE CHECK BACK if viewing before then. MORE IN TWO WEEKS! 
I'm now EIGHT YEARS into selling my immense collection of 1990s independent label ORIGINAL PROMO POSTERS, VINYL, CASSETTES, FLYERS & POSTCARDS. Most are from my hoard acquired whilst in the independent record/music business.
NOW I'm adding my (usually) MINT UNPLAYED VINYL FROM THE 1980s & 1990s to my fortnightly listings. Record shop fresh, stored for decades. Independent labels, guitar bands, and electronica (IDM, EDM) my speciality.
PLEASE ADD ME AS A FAVOURITE SELLER for notifications of 1980s & 1990s NEVER PLAYED VINYL. Mostly from independent labels.
FREE POSTAGE after first item on nearly all printed items, and COMBINED POSTAGE DISCOUNTS on everything else (subject to conditions below).
HAPPY HUNTING!

THIS ICONIC IMAGE is an original, official poster measuring approximately 24" x 17" (60 x 42cm) that was printed for City Slang in 1994 to promote Hole's second album Live Through This, which included the singles Doll Parts, Violet & Miss World. This year is the album's 30th anniversary. THIS IS THE ONLY ONE I HAVE OF THIS VERY RARE POSTER.

There were TWO different UK posters used to promote this release. The other one is also for sale in this weekend's listings.

CONDITION: Like New/Very Good (please see indieposters' OWN condition guide below)

This is an UNUSED poster with undiminished colour, perfect corners, and mostly perfect edging. You'll notice some rippling on a section of the right side due to a little exposure to damp at some point in its storage history. 

A very fine example of this rare vintage poster that has been stored flat and away from light for 30 years.

It is one of two original HOLE 'Live Through This' promo posters listed in May, along with more 1990s promo posters, vinyl, tapes, postcards, etc. for other independent artists PLUS SOME 1980s/'90s MINT UNPLAYED ORIGINAL INDEPENDENT LABEL VINYL. 

FREE POSTAGE on additional items.  Please see information below for the terms of this offer.

YOU MIGHT FIND SOMETHING ELSE YOU LIKE IF YOU VIEW MY OTHER AUCTION & BUY IT NOW ITEMS. Prices from £1! 

PRICE: BUY IT NOW to guarantee your item. This option disappears when a bid is placed so if the BIN price is too high for you, you can place a bid to prevent somebody else taking it before the auction ends. But you might lose out to a higher bidder! The choice is yours.

PROVENANCE: All my posters etc. were sourced from record shops or direct from record labels & record distributors in the 1980s & 1990s. They were each from a one-off print run for the record label and were never on sale to the public. 

GUARANTEE: I HAVE A MAXIMUM 5 OUT OF 5 RATING FOR 'ACCURATE DESCRIPTION'! However if you feel that your item doesn't match the written description and photographs please contact me to arrange return and refund (including postage costs). 

PLEASE carefully examine the photograph using the zoom function. The photo forms part of the item description, particularly with regard to its condition.

NOTE: I am the first and only owner of everything I list unless stated otherwise. All photos are my own and photographed on a purple/blue background for easy identification. 

PACKAGING: Your poster will be lightly rolled then wrapped in a sheet of brown paper with twists at both ends for easy and safe removal from the professionally made-for-purpose mailing tube.

POSTAGE: 

The postage & packing charge for this item is the same or less than what it costs for stamps, packaging, and a minimum of 13.5% of the p&p charge taken by eBay & Paypal (yes, they really do that!).

If your postage & packing fee doesn’t cover the cost of the postal service appropriate to the value of this item I will pay for a FREE UPGRADE so that your order is always fully insured.

Orders up to £20: Royal Mail Second Class or Hermes Courier (UK) or Royal Mail International Standard (rest of the world). Proof of posting will be retained.

PAYMENT: 

Within 24 hours of auction end or Buy It Now purchase OR within 48 hours of a combined payment invoice  UNLESS YOU HAVE A BID ON A CURRENT, UNFINISHED AUCTION. I'll see your bid so there's no need to contact me about delayed payment.

THANK YOU!

FREE POSTAGE on additional items (Terms & Conditions): 

1) You must request an invoice for all items BEFORE making any payment to be eligible for the combined postage discount. No retrospective discounts will be given. In case of difficulty please message me before buying. 

2) 'FREE POSTAGE on additional items' covers any number of posters, flyers, carrier bags & small stickers that you win/buy within a seven day period. These items are rolled and can't be sent with videos, T shirts or flat items (e.g. postcards) but I'm happy to provide a single invoice on request.

3) Each individual item carries a p&p charge appropriate to its size and value. Only the highest of these charges will apply to your order. All other qualifying items will be FREE POSTAGE & PACKING.

4) EXCEPTIONS: 
a) 60" x 40" posters can't usually be combined with other items (but please enquire).
b) If your additional purchases take the value of your order into a higher insurance bracket the appropriate 'at cost' increment will be added to your p&p charge, which will still be cheaper than buying two or more items individually.

INDIEPOSTERS’ OWN CONDITION GUIDE:

Unless otherwise noted, all of the posters I list have never been displayed or mounted, other than for a few seconds to take the photograph. 

They have been stored since new either flat or rolled, away from sunlight.

Like New - UNUSED; flawless, or some minor signs of handling at most. May be factory folded if mentioned as such in the description.

Very Good - UNUSED but not stored perfectly so may have some light creasing and/or bending and/or rippling. Corners are still pointed and edges are mostly clean and sharp. It might look 'like new' if flattened and framed. No tears, or pin/staple holes, sellotape, blue tack, fading or major creasing.

Good - PROBABLY USED, may have more substantial creasing and/or bending and/or rippling, and/or small tears and/or small pin/staple holes and/or fading. Corners may not all be pointed, edges may not be sharp but there are no major tears or missing parts. Possibly other minor defects as noted, but still in nice overall condition for a vintage item.

Acceptable - other, more substantial defects as described.

Thanks for looking.
