Catalogue note

Original PEZ-signed diamond-format flyer for Complete Control's Logic at The Marquee, 105 Charing Cross Road, London WC2. It advertises an October programme of every-Saturday all-nighters, 11pm–6am, with Colin Dale, Eon, T.K.O., Remould, Sasha B, Impact, Aubrey, Luke Slater and T23. The exact year is not printed; deeper research supports high-confidence 1992. Its 'progressive dance sounds' wording, techno-associated roster, fluorescent scientific imagery and central-London venue make it a strong document of early-1990s techno culture developing alongside hardcore rave.

Advertised programme: October DJs include Colin Dale; Eon; T.K.O.; Remould; Sasha B; Impact; Aubrey; Luke Slater; T23.

Graphic-design significance: The PEZ-signed face is a distinctive geometric diamond bordered in fluorescent green, orange and yellow, with molecular/atomic ball-and-stick imagery, glossy spheres and monumental LOGIC lettering. Its scientific/technological vocabulary aligns closely with early-1990s techno futurism; the unusual diamond physical format is integral to the identity.

Historical context: In 1992 London techno culture was differentiating itself from breakbeat hardcore through clubs and DJs emphasising purist techno, acid and progressive electronic dance music. Simon Reynolds describes Colin Dale within this 'proper techno' milieu in mid-1992. Logic's own wording and roster fit that moment closely.

Production note: Full-colour illustrated face with fluorescent lime-green typographic reverse on paper/card stock; exact printing process and stock not established.

Condition note: Very Good appearance, ungraded. Light edge/corner wear and surface handling, several small pinholes/punctures near upper/lower points and minor rubbing. Colour exceptionally strong; all text legible; no major tears or paper loss.

Confidence / uncertainty: Month, weekly recurrence, hours, venue/address and DJ roster are physically verified. The year 1992 is high-confidence/provisional after deeper research, not a printed fact. Colin Dale matches an existing TMR authority. Other DJs remain exact printed credits unless authority identity is securely resolved. PEZ is physically verified by signature.
