WWWhatsup U2 Pins

A little known fact is that the pinstand made the first U2 product ever, the 'could happen to anyone' set below, for the band before they even put out a record. Their friends the Moylett sisters ran a punk store 'No Romance' on Gaiety Green, Dublin, and keen purveyors of Better Badges, put them in touch. They continued ordering for some years as new albums came out. The 'Boy' pin was a big hit.
