      Indeed. When I visited the Fame Studio about two years ago I was allowed to take a look into the "record storage room" (was not allowed to touch anything or buy the records though...). T

From memory, the records in the Fame singles Box set have "Distributed by Ace Records Ltd, UK" on the labels

Yes, Ace / Kent have put out loads of Fame stuff on vinyl & CD since they set up a deal with the Muscle Shoals based concern.

As you would expect with Ace, the known gems PLUS loads of great previously unissued stuff have been escaping.

 Not a new press, they are originals.

He has a lot of  different mint records from the time of Fame records (Rick Hall). 

Spooner and Spoons on Fame and George Jacksons on Verve etc, Also bits of memorabillia from Fame records.

Indeed. When I visited the Fame Studio about two years ago I was allowed to take a look into the "record storage room" (was not allowed to touch anything or buy the records though...). There were thousands of 45's in there. Unopened distributor boxes etc. All of it original old unsold stock.

Whilst this is true, it would be unfair to think that there are hundreds of copies of any one title. 

I think we're talking about 50 copies at most and less for a lot of titles.

 

They are basically the copies that Fame were sent as the record company, production company or publisher of the tracks.
