Catalogue note

October 1982 issue of The Face, No. 30, with Kid Creole on the cover and a mix of music, film, fashion and visual culture. The issue contains interviews with Harrison Ford and David Sylvian, a contemporaneous Ridley Scott feature on Blade Runner, Julie Burchill, New York art and workwear/style material. The rear cover preserves a Culture Club 'Kissing to Be Clever' advertisement from the album's launch period.

Why this object matters

The contemporary Scott Blade Runner feature and Ford interview provide original film-production/reception context alongside Sylvian and Kid Creole. This strengthens TMR’s physical-media and visual-culture connections sufficiently for Gold at 9.0.

Evidence limits: No new physical inspection or collation was performed. Copy-specific conclusions remain limited to the retained catalogue and accession evidence.
