Julianb Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 Originals have a very small capital B in the deadwax ( both sides of disc). Very very nice gift if it's a 'real' one! Julian Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 First boot is vinyl and a very good look alike but has PB in the run off. Second boot is styrene (also has PB in run off). Third boot is yellow and on vinyl. I think there is a 4th, also yellow, at the wrong speed. Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Pete S Posted December 28, 2006 Share Posted December 28, 2006 I sold one on ebay last year, might still be up on popsike. It was a bit weird what it went for, a near mint copy and it fetched less than a tatty vg a week later! Here it is https://www.popsike.com/php/detaildata.php?...nr=100502362844 Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
Barry Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I've got a blue-labelled styrene press, with no capital B's, no scratched PB's but clear MR stamps on both sides. Another boot I take it? Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

Alan Walls Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 I bought one off Pat Brady's list for £15 way back in the day. Blue label, maybe silver writing, styrene IIRC. One night at Stafford years later Pete Lawson found it in my salesbox and told me that not only was it a boot, it was he and a mate who booted it in the 70's. Later when I mentioned this to Pat, he reckoned I, Pete or both of us must have been "mistaken"... Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...

The 1st boot is the one done by Pete Lawson and Chris Fletcher - faded yellow one sided, this is the faster version, I'll post a copy up later on tonight.

Ernie Andrews Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 First boot is vinyl and a very good look alike but has PB in the run off. Second boot is styrene (also has PB in run off). Third boot is yellow and on vinyl. I think there is a 4th, also yellow, at the wrong speed. The 4th one is white plain label with black writing - I know this for sure because I was half responsible for it and played at 48rpm along with the Marsha gee at the same speed. How naughty was I then in those days and Broadway Sissy was going to be next but I bottled it! Link to comment Social source share More sharing options...
