This Bee features a full-on club scene of lights in its base; a portrait of ‘Mr Manchester’, Anthony H Wilson; and the iconic yellow and black stripes synonymous with The Haçienda and Peter Saville’s design. A ‘Madchester’ logo sums up the era (1989/90) when all eyes were
on the city as a global cultural hub. Look out for famous quotes and splashes of ‘Mane’ humour!
