Of Factory New York was the formal New York wing of Factory Records. It was based in offices at 325 Spring Street Rm 233, New York, NY 10013, USA. Factory fans who know their posters will recall this as the venue for the White Columns 'Compact' installation (Fac 171). This mail order catalogue made available a wide selection of material, some of which, such as the posters, is incredibly rare today.

Of Factory is pleased to present this catalogue displaying an expansion of items available for mail order purchase.

THE AUDIO CASSETTES represent a new line of cassette boxes releasing new titles as well as some back catalogue. The new packaging has been designed by Peter Saville.

THE BADGE has become a favorite amongst friends and fans.

THE VIDEO CASSETTES offer selections from Doublevision and Ikon. The films of B Movies is the first in a series of their work up to "Vortex". This is a new direction in making quality independent films more available to the public.

THE COMPACT DISCS represent the future of Factory U.K.

We hope you enjoy this catalogue and look forward to your continued support.
