This likely was the incident that made Mike hate bootleggers.

The red flags for me are the 'unreleased' and 'from the yet to be released...' text on the labels. No cutting technician or whoever would write anything subjective like that on a legitimate acetate.

The thinner cover with the darker brown is later - If it has a catalog # 8236, it's from the early to mid-seventies; if it's 19128, its from 1977 or later.

III and IV are original first pressings. With II, check the fine print at the bottom of the label - if the address is 1841 Broadway, it's a first. If it's Rockefeller Plaza, It would date to 1974. If it is a first, ; check the run-out etchings on both sides. If you see 'RL' then you can buy 500 lottery tickets and win a billion dollars.

I am curious what is new with this edition.

Thanks for the update - I have the purple and orange shirts with this design, but am still seeking a white one.

I'm sure I started a thread about this... the only responses I got mentioned the Puff Daddy song from Godzilla...

I will never justify paying the going rate for the 70 LP 'The Final Option', especially since I have all but 4 of the individual titles that make up the set.

Forgot to mention Sunshine Woman.

What he said plus Hey Hey What Can I Do

That poster is identical to the US promo, which does turn up on ebay a few times a year and goes for around $150-200.

I just found out the retail is $9.98.

Does anyone know what the price is and how limited it is? I already see copies on ebay and the cheapest is $30.

The tag should say 'Spruce'; this was the original shirt sold at shows in 1975. Size matters, but $400 sounds about right considering the excellent condition.

Six foot by four foot? The frame alone had to cost a couple hundred...

Is it printed directly to the board or on paper with the board backing it? Either way, I am pretty sure it dates from the mid-80's and worth less than $50.

The Warner logo in the fine print means it has to be from 1974 or later; I didn't realize they still had the 'Do what thou wilt...' in the runoff.

One thing to look for is if the fine print mentions WEA; that means it's from 1974 or later.

I know a little about this mysterious release; It is purported to be a 300-copy only release from 1968 but is widely considered to actually be from the early 80's. I also know there was a 'pirate' edition that came out in the late 80's. Supposedly the original has a glossy sleeve. I noticed the copies I've seen online show two different labels. So the question is, is this the original: Or it it this?

I have been told (on this forum I believe) that the girl on the back cover was also the model on the front cover of 'Houses'.

It's somewhat uncommon; it might get a small premium from a collector.

0698 refers to the suggested retail price ($6.98). I will have to check my copies to see if any of them also have it.

This is the online go-to for information re: vintage tees.
