HW: Re: [Hawkwind] 25 years on and astounding questions....

Mike/Al etc,
I think you're exactly right with all the detail here.
Charisma's decision to change 25 Years spine, much to Dave et al's disgust.
The booklet is just the tour programme, not aware that the 2 were ever
packaged together.
Never seen the PXR5 flyer either, or the tree for that matter, is it just
the Pete Frame one which came as a double page spread in Sounds in 1979?
If so, is it paper, card, A3, A4, laminated, coloured etc?
Quark slides definitely European only, not sure if limited to Germany or not
though.
I've got photos from the slides which are absolutely brilliant.
