A is for Amnesia House
Amnesia House have been around since 1989 and though there early flyers are not stunning examples of what a classic rave flyer is, some of their later ones are classic examples of how raves used popular culture to advertise events. Take the Benson & Hedges flyer as an example. Its unmistakable as the cigeratte packets but it Amnesia as well. A number of other companies used this same trick including the Eclipse (classic Eastenders one for instance) and Sterns/Interdance.
I don't think they are as nice to look at as some of the more computer imagery ones but they are a very distinct style. What do you think?
