Can any of you kind folks tell me how to tell an original copy from a bootleg?

Picked up a copy today the lable is slightly glossy with black lettering on a white background. The catalogue number in etched into the run out not stamped.

Thanks in advance

Original white copies are demos and it should say so on the lable. Issues are red both the issue and the demo are stamped. Sounds like a boot to me sorry :huh:

Really Chalky I'm sure mine is (was) on vinyl has it been booted on a red lable with stamped matrix number then?

May not matter I've been looking for mine on and off for a month now can't find the bugger. Wanted to play it out for Steve McWilliams found the 'She's My Beauty Queen' but not the 'Ain't Nothing You Can Do'

Pretty sure although I stand to be corrected. Boots are white demos too I think.

The original White demos are extremely rare but because it was booted as a w/d the issues seem to be more desirable. the original red issue is on styrene and has the ZTSC stamped in the run out grooves. me and Glenn Griffin went to masnships when he was in King street and both of us bought red issues for £20 each those were the days

My one doesn't mention it being a demo or dj copy.

The boots don't mate. If it's vinyl and looks like this it's a pretty good bet it's a boot.
