FRIARS
AYLESBURY ARCHIVE PROJECT
The
Friars Aylesbury Archive is a not-for-profit project wherein we are
trying to create a complete archive of all Friars related
memorabilia including Friars news sheets, posters, tickets, video,
recordings, press cuttings etc. We are then intending to completely
digitise everything so that there is a permanent record of
everything that has happened since Friars first started in June
1969.
In order to finance the project
we will be offering for sale items where we have excess copies. Any
funds created will be used to add additional security to the
archive, digitise the archive and to create a fund to buy any
missing items of which there are quite a few, as you will see below.
We were recently thrilled to be able to purchase a Friars U2 poster
from June 1981 which we’ve been after for many years.
The
first items for sale will be in the Omega Memorabilia Auction this
Tuesday 30 June.

The following Friars items are in
the auction:
FRIARS POSTERS
The Clash 1982 Combat Rock Tour

There seems to be a lot of
excitement about the Bowie poster, which Omega have featured on
their main page. The auction will be live streamed.
As explained we are very keen to
acquire the items we are missing, for the archive. Some people have
already kindly donated items to the archive for which we are very
grateful, but we are quite prepared to pay for them if necessary.
These are the missing handouts
and posters as of June 2020:
