No. 14 in Damon Gough's "Pieces of Me" (a collection of personal items) in today's Guardian is a pair of FAC 51-Y3 trainers which were auctioned off at the opening of the FAC 491 Urbis Haçienda exhibition last year.

He says "Clare had a few drinks and bid against Shaun Ryder at the opening of the Haçienda exhibition last year for these prototype Haçienda trainers. If Tony Wilson and the Haçienda hadn't happened, there wouldn't have been a scene for someone like me to emerge into."
