Does anyone have any New Order postcards? I seem to have 2 WFTSC (album) 'No' postcards. I've no idea where they came from and have never seen any others?

I think I have one of those knocking aroud somewhere too. My local cinema used to have a rack of free postcards in the foyer; mostly advertising stuff, so basically posh flyers. I think that's where I got mine, for what it's worth.
Slightly off topic: I also discovered recently that I have a postcard/flyer for a Coldplay gig (and their Safety EP) which I was handed in Camden Town a long time ago. Venue: Dingwalls, entry £4 (yes four). "Buy the Safety EP, avalable at the gig or through fanclub". 25th May 1998. I wonder if I had managed to get it signed at the time, how much it would be worth now. I wonder if some sucker Coldplay fan would pay me for it anyway...

I have about 5 which I picked up from eBay which include True Faith, Low-Life etc. I have always been on the look out for the promo box set but it normally ends up too rich for my liking. The Factory Records set is still available from Polite @ http://site.politecards....ory-records-postcard-setThere's also a Haçienda box set of Nick Hardy's scale model available @ http://www.musicglue.com...cienda-postcard-box-set/Edited by user 24 July 2015 07:32:56(UTC)

I have five postcards joined with "Peter Saville Show Soundtrack" CD with the following pictures: the front covers of "True Faith", "Unknown Pleasures" and "Blue Monday", the colorful American flag from 1989 USA tour and one of the variations of the cherub from the booklet of "Technique".
And I also have the Factory Records set. |

In addition to the official "Singles" postcard set documented at the Niagara discography site, Warner Bros. sent out an official postcard in the US announcing the forthcoming release "Republic." I still have my postmarked copy. It's basically five small orange life preservers in the foreground with the fire image from the "Republic" artwork in the background. Not necessarily strictly New Order, but Factory issued some very nice postcard sets for the Festival of the 10th Summer, particularly the Numbers set by Peter Saville Associates. I got one of my Numbers sets framed. -Mike
