Factory

FAC 21

The first Factory badge

Spring 1980

Description: Color Maroon and silver

Status: very rare

Designed by Peter Saville, Manufactured by Johnson's Engravers, Leeds.

Spring 1980

400 made in maroon with a later 200 in black. F design was not in fact Factory's F but the Fractured Music logo, Fractured Music being Joy Division's publishing arm.

From an original idea by Durutti Column guitarist Dave Rowbotham who, late one night in Strawberry studios, suggested Factory do a badge "like a prefect's badge, you know, enamel". Dave was later to die in a vicious axe murder that was memorialized in the Happy Mondays song, "Cowboy Dave."
