Abstract

The Salt Lake City club and music scene collection (1987-1996) includes mostly musical and political fliers, posters, and handbills.

Arrangement

The Salt Lake City club and music scene collection is arranged first with music fliers alphabetically by venue association. Regular sized music fliers are then followed by political and theatrical fliers with miscellanous fliers, posters, and handbills last. Oversized fliers and posters are maintained in their original order in their original scrapbook. There is also a large collection of handbills for raves in around Salt Lake City in the mid-1990s and hardcore and Straight-edge fliers.
