The poster is printed on glossy paper (hence some glares in the photos!) and measures approximately 36 X 24 inches. The central 242 picture is from the "A Selective Retaliation" photo sessions.
Surrounding the group photo is a then-complete Front 242 catalogue of releases found on Wax Trax and additional contact information.
Surrounding the photo is a very nice review:
"From the pioneering electronic soundscapes of "Endless Riddance" in 1984 through to the phenomenal successes of 1989's "Front By Front", Front 242 has become synonymous with Electronic Body Music in North America. Over the past 6 years Wax Trax and Front 242 introduced an unsuspecting U.S. audience to the sound of a whole new electronic underground. Front 242's aural terrorist tactics and revolutionary sampling techniques were integral components in the ground breaking Wax Trax sound of the 80's."
The key to collecting this poster is to find one unfolded, a very difficult challenge!
