Chronicle was originally commissioned by The Bridgewater Hall in Manchester ahead of a special concert in April 2011. This new version builds on from that version.

The Return of The Durutti Column [Peter Saville Limited Edition LP/7"/CD, FBN 14]

LP/7-inch/CD: UK 06.2014 (Factory Benelux FBN 114)

In association with Peter Saville, Factory Benelux produced a limited edition of 10 unique copies of the FBN 114 vinyl re-release. Each features a bespoke abrasive paper seated beneath the Factory logo die-cut on the outer cover. Each paper features a different colour or texture, so that no two copies are the same. The package also includes a 12" square certificate of authenticity signed by Peter Saville.

The certificate and the inner bag on which the abrasive paper is mounted are printed on white matt reverse board and match the die-cut outer sleeve. The package is further differentiated from the standard 2013 release in that the inner bag features no text or images, and there is no sticker on the re-sealable polythene bag.

The special Saville edition also includes a postcard with a colour portrait of Vini Reilly taken by Annik Honoré at Palatine Road in 1980. Purchasers also received a complimentary slipcased CD copy of The Return of the Durutti Column (FBN 114 CD). The price per copy was 200 GBP.

1. Black - fine grit
2. Black - medium grit
