THE LAST RESORT

Original catalogue for 'The Last Resort' clothing store in London. Eight pages. Photocopied paper stapled to the upper left corner. A very good copy, a little rubbed, toned and creased to the extremities and a couple of short closed tears to the upper edge. The contents are otherwise clean and without inscriptions or stamps.

Initially a punk clothing shop, then in 1978 owners Micky and Margaret French, changed theme seeing an opportunity to become the Malcolm McLaren and Vivienne Westwood of the skinhead revival. The shop, located in Goulston Street in London's East End became a popular hangout for young skins who has few other places to go. The business acquired a poor reputation due to the quality of its clothes, terrible service (mail orders were rarely filled after payment) and much of the clientele.
