Yep, actually used to have one! (Back in 86, that is, and not after the event. Not sure what happened to it though).
Could've sworn it was 85, mind, as I was at VIth Form, but it might've been 86 also.
Never seen one of this before also, and it is a really fantastic collector's item. But too expensive for us, poor Brazilians.. :(

Can you remember what other sleaves are on it? Anymore than what the seller has listed?

Either TLU or Murder, defo one of those two. Beyond that I can't remember. No band pictures, just sleeves, so presume it was just the like of Confusion, BM, etc. I remember thinking it seemed 'dated' at the time so heavy on the JD and light on NO, with none of the Low-Life pics which were then more relevant, I'm sure of that.
I used to have it too, wish I'd kept hold of it now!
I think there were actually some bootleg sleeves on it(!), as you can see, March is Dantes Inferno. I remember being a bit disappointed with it at the time, it's a bit naff IMHO.
It's 86 not '85....
Picture are: January -Atmosphere February - Love Will Tear Us Apart March - Dante's Inferno April - A circuit diagram (?) May - Thieves Like Us June - A section of that surrealist poster for the Summer '84 gigs July - Procession August - Not sure what this picture is but there's a fractured music logo in the corner with 'New Order' written around it September - Painting of a bloke playing a guitar with 'Blue Monday' written next to it October - Komakino (spelt correctly, unlike the bootleg!) November - Unknown Pleasures December - Closer plus a discography (up to FACTUS8) superimposed on a picture of Ian
It was useful as a calendar, but £15? Unless anyone's offering to buy mine in which case it's a work of art...
I'd forgotten all about this ! One of my favourite items at the time. I must dig it out - the dates will correspond again soon I'm sure, even if the year will be wrong.

The year 2014 is just around the corner. ;)
