Question. I have an Anderson Brothers ‘I can see him loving you’ promo on GSF
Mine is on VINYL and has the prominent ridge 1/3rd of the way into the label which is sited as the boot BUT my copy has MONO labels on both sides. All the copies on Discogs etc have STEREO / MONO labels. The matrix does have GSFS1179 and GSFM1179 in the dead wax and it does play STEREO/MONO
Run out widths are 10mm stereo 12mm mono
My copy pics and at the end the Discogs pics of the listed boot. 
Do I just have another version of the boot that hasn’t been listed on Discogs???

Minor change

Isn't it just the bootleg that has somehow ended up with two mono labels at the pressing plant ?

Could well be!

This has been interesting reading, but how would you know an original as there seems to be lots of reissues etc?

John Manship's book gives the definitive on the deadwax readings.

UPDATE: Another dealer mentioned a persons   name when I was asking about the bootleg of the Anderson Brothers that I had and I posted this. No accusations were made and this post has been removed. I’ve messaged that person just in case it is really him. Apologise for any confusion or offence this caused.

Yip that does look like the boot which i purchased around about 76 the only difference i can see on your label was mine was a shiney glossy type  paper label.

Manship just got a proper copy coming up for auction I think 1 👍

Am not used to check John's auction 'live' pages but what a shame it is that one can't enlarge the record's image directly from the site. Even if not totally at least partially for closer inspection... Like even the eVilBay's offering for minuter details of the records condition and or certification and confidence for the buyer prior placing a bid if ever.

I agree , considering how much useless waffle usually accompanies his listings it would have been nice if he'd actually posted up something more useful on this one.

I don't recall whether he covers it in his 'counterfeit' videos , I can't be arsed to trawl through all of his channel to find out tbh .

I'd tag him here for more info but can't recall his pseudonym.

Last I remember seing an "old" post of his on here his account was 'closed' and credited to as 'guest', so yes I believe he's out of here and not back since.

normally if you say his name three times, someone connected pops up

Here are the four pictures for the auction in the full resolution that they were uploaded in, not much bigger, but at least 800x800px:

Right, thanks Sebastian but still what would be interesting IMHO would be to have initial higher resolution imaging for less 'blurry' secondary imaging from screen captures of the 'real deal' copy next to the 'counterfeit' vinyl bootleg label like here but even better...

Totally agree. The images posted above by me are not screen captures. The full resolution images can be accessed from John's site if you just delve into the html code and extract the links.

As I remember, it was played plenty of times in Wigan Casino as well!  The blog doesn't mention that! Along with other relatively new releases were getting played like Johnny Williams "Something Kinda Mellow" on Babylon, James Bynum "Time Passes By" on Philly City - "Keep On Running Away" Bits n' Pieces and Black & Ward - Stanley Woodruff and lots more things that were coming out of America at that mid 70's time and played in the Casino when they were virtually new releases.

Here's a "600" scan of the vinyl boot. Sadly, I don't have an original to post.

dead wax markings for the original...

Three bootlegs.

One with the prominent ridge, see the scans on the OP.

Soussan boot with PB in the run out and styrene boot with a delta number ∆100274.
