Steve Cochrane has been collecting music posters since the late 1970s.
By the mid eighties he was importing posters from Europe and selling them mail order through Rip It Up magazine, which evolved into both wholesale and retail.
In 1985, Steve joined post punk luminaries Skank Attack and began pasting posters on Wellingtons streets. Eventually, casual work led to his first poster distribution company The Stick Up!.
Steve returned to the music industry and poster game a while ago, with his print and distribution company Pasted!, and remains an active musician and promoter. Despite selling a lot of stuff stuff along the way, Steve still has an extensive poster collection acquired from a vast array of sources. There's Flying Nun gems like Skeptics, The Chills, The Bats and Bailter Space, there's Shihad, Split Enz, and Space Waltz, along with NZ tour posters of REM, Mick Jagger, Billy Bragg .....
All works are for sale
