The Marvin Depreciation Society

The fan club was mentioned on the sleeves of Marvin's 1981 hit singles "Marvin" and "Reasons To Be Miserable", as follows:

For further news of how bad life can be, write to:

I wrote off in 1981 and received details of why not to join. I did anyway and received a copy of the first (and only) newsletter.

The Marvin Depreciation Society seems to have died shortly after its creation. This is somehow appropriate.

Stuff

I purchased the lapel button (0.2 MBytes)

I also purchased a sweatshirt which is long gone. It was long-sleeved and grey with The Marvin Depreciation Society logo on the breast
