The label was founded by Chris Blackwell in Kingston, Jamaica in 1959 with capital of just £1,000. After relocating to Britain in the early '60s, he signed up artists including U2, Bob Marley and more recently Florence & The Machine and Frankmusik.

An exhibition of art and memorabilia will run from May 22 until June 17 at The Vinyl Factory, London.
