Hi Ian

I will post more Information tomorrow as I am just about to leave for work.

There is the Extremely Rare West Coast Monarch, currently on >>> Manships Auction <<<

Then there are Vinyl copies.

I have a DEMO that is a different Label Variation as it is from a different pressing plant.

I think that I have also seen another DEMO very slight differences to the credits.

These are Original and of the time of Issue but from different pressing plants.

You should have printed letters in the dead wax.

Or if it has a MR Delta stamp.

Boot

Not looking good then all mine have got in the dead wax are UK4M 0865 a very small PR and what looks like a R in a C all scratched

That's what mine has styrene £19 quid about 5 years ago either a reissue or boot after a listen I have christened it as a boot.

Sounds ok a little quiet looks a bit like they tried to mimic the Monarch stamp with the R&C.

Bought one of them as a repress for a fiver and the other one for 30 squid as an original

but I think the guy believed it was an original cos he's had it so long

Cheers

I have just checked through some of my Laurie DEMO's, ALL have a STAMPED Matrix & are on Vinyl.

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I have a couple of Stock Copies, Including "I'm On My Way".

Not too sure of the source of this Stock Copy, I will search it out and have a look.

I like the other side to this Up On The Bridge but some copy's don't have this on the B-side.

I have also found 2 other Laurie records with a simple scratched in matrix non soul record?
