Rare memorabilia from post-punk legends The Fall is set to go up for auction later this month. Frontman Mark E. Smith's clothing worn in music videos and on stage, early band concert flyers and more is set to be auctioned by on June 28.
The Fall hailed from Prestwich and were one of the most influential bands of the late 70s and 80s in Manchester's bustling music scene. And frontman Mark E. Smith was the one constant throughout the band's life.
Items up for auction include a shirt owned by Smith for the 'Ghost in my house' music video, a programme for 'Curious Orange' with handwritten notes from Smith, and a handwritten set-list for a gig. The shirts worn on stage and on video are estimated to make up to £1,500 at auction.
