He's had major retrospectives over the past year, and everyone seems to be hailing him as the most influential designer of the last quarter century. Right now, I am attempting to get the CD and cards from his retrospective and also reprints of FAC1 and FAC3.

Great job on the Joy Division stuff. NOT CRAP even though it was always a month late.

Least crap designer ever.

I was just looking at some of his stuff on his website and my mind is being blown away by the sleeves I hadn't ever seen.
Like this:

I rike dis guy a rot.

Some of New Order's songs are alright, and I loved them as a kid, but their album covers are way, way, way cooler than almost all of their music.

I LOVE this guy's aesthetic.

I'm disappointed though, seems like you can't find reproduction poster prints of any of his work, anywhere. Some of his stuff would be great to hang on a wall. If anyone here knows where you can buy copies of his work cheaply (other than on a record sleeve), please let me know!!!
