Sisterhood Ephemera

THE place for your Sisters-related comments, questions and snippets of Sisters information. For those who do not know, The Sisters of Mercy are a rock'n'roll band. And a pop band. And an industrial groove machine. Or so they say. They make records. Lots of records, apparently. But not in your galaxy. They play concerts. Lots of concerts, actually. But you still cannot see them. So what's it all about, Alfie? This is one of the few tightly-moderated forums on Heartland, so please keep on-topic. All off-topic posts will either be moved or deleted. Chairman Bux is the editor and the editor's decision is final. Danke.

greetings all

Long time reader, first time poster, etc.,

I recently came into possession of this poster on account of my interest in collecting Cult memorabilia from their earlier period. It appears to be an original poster printed up for promotional purposes. It is printed on thin paper, only slightly better than newsprint quality. Size is 61cm by 86cm. It has been folded 3x3.

The poster itself isn't that interesting, but for the fact that 'The Sisterhood' are billed as support. Of course, this was the Sisters fragment that went on to form the mish. Given the history of the Sisterhood name battle between Eldrich and the others, it is interesting to find an original item which documents this in some way.

What I'm wondering is, how many other examples of ephemera such as this are there from this period? I have seen handbills and zine adverts, but never a poster like this.

À.
