A rare opportunity to buy an original poster direct from
the archive of legendary promoter Mint Burston. Mint was a pioneering music
promoter whose grassroots vision helped shape the UK’s alternative soundscape
from the late 1970s through the early 2000s. Operating primarily out of Southampton
and Birmingham, Burston booked early gigs for future legends—Radiohead, Oasis,
Coldplay—long before they hit the mainstream. His tenure at The Joiners Arms
turned the venue into a launchpad for indie and punk acts, while his earlier
work at The Fighting Cocks in Moseley laid the groundwork for Birmingham’s
post-punk revival.
This poster archive captures the raw energy of Burstons
era: hand-pulled gig flyers, rare tour sheets, and promotional artwork from
shows that defined a generation. Each piece reflects his eye for talent and his
commitment to giving emerging artists a stage. For collectors and historians
alike, it’s not just ephemera—it’s a blueprint of Britain’s underground music
movement.
