Superb! Have updated the discog above.

I agree, it seems a bit strange. Perhaps the numbering is all over the place and not necessarily chronological. I also would date the Dobyne 45 to much earlier than 1970. The Elizabeth D. Williams 45 (#104) is called "Sleep On Doctor King, Sleep On" and I assume (?) that the lyrics refer to Martin Luther King. He was killed on April 4, 1968.

Great stuff! I've updated the discography above with the E. Williams 45.

The second highest bidder bid $889.87 ($10 less than the winning bid). The winning bidder might've had a top bid of $2000, there's no way to tell.

Hello! I've listed a bunch of records on eBay. There are label/sleeve scans and soundclips to everything. Check them out at: https://www.ebay.com/...ushkings/m.html Thanks for looking! Take care. /Sebastian

Anyone that publishes anything in any format runs the risk of getting their work copied or bootlegged. Printing a book is one of the worst things you can do if you're desperate to keep your knowledge to yourself. Anyone can copy it. While on this topic it's interesting to note that the fictitious "made up by Manship" Dee & Joe 45 on BIG SIX which Manship included in his guide as a "tender trap" turned up in another major UK price guide that has been mentioned in this thread. The info was obviously copied from Manship's book. More info here:

Two more copies here that aren't represented on Popsike: $34: https://collectorsfrenzy.com/details/140551612411/JOHNNY_BAKER_Shy_GuyDonnieO_NORTHERN_SOUL_FOG_CITY_45 $55: https://collectorsfrenzy.com/details/370574299129/Rare_Northern_Soul__Johnny_Baker_on_Fog_City__Hear

I know what you mean. However there's only been 476 visits to this topic, probably from only 50-75 unique visitors.

You didn't count the two copies that jinx74 mentioned above that he's had. I have no idea how many copies there are out there, but just because only 11 copies are accounted for by the people that have seen this thread on SoulSource doesn't mean that there are only 11 copies in existence. Why not phone Manship and ask how many copies he's had through his hands over the years? Or John Anderson. Or any of the other major dealers.

"Help Me" on WAND?

That's the reissue/bootleg. The original reads: ( C ) 1973 <- the "C" is in a brackets The bootleg reads © 1973 <- the "C" is in a circle

Personally I think it's a shame that I now will need two books for something that I only had to use ONE BOOK to do earlier. But I totally understand him from a business point of view and I will buy a bootleg guide as well if he decides to produce a new one.

It wouldn't surprise me if the reason instead is that Manship plans to issue a standalone detailed bootleg guide again sometime soon and want his customers to buy both the price guide and the bootleg guide.

Great stuff Chalky. There nowadays seems to be a vacant lot on 310 Chestnut Street and an abandoned house next to it.

Can't be a coincident that there's a (seemingly abandoned) trailer truck with "Citiplate" printed on it parked on the vacant lot opposite URP then!

Probably. I have no idea really, it's just guesswork. But I enjoy looking up things like these on Google Maps.

While I'm at it... ARCHER (in Detroit):

Ok, so we have: 453 Chestnut St. = URP 457 Chestnut St. = Matrix Of Nashville 469 Chestnut St. = NRP My love for Google maps made me go dig this up: URP NRP That URP building is BEAUTIFUL! Can't find anything at "457 Chestnut St", it should be right next to URP but there's just a parking lot. URP is a big building though.

That's a horrible mash-up. It's not even in tune. I'd rather listen to the original by Basement Jaxx. And that's saying something.

There's a copy on eBay at the moment as well: https://www.ebay.com/itm/181001602237 There must be loads of them about.

That's because after a certain amount of searches per day you need to pay to get onto the site, so you are re-directed to the login page. It seems like you have used up your searches for today. But rest assured, both variations are represented on Popsike. The one I linked to sold for £27 in August 2010.

Look at the link I put up: https://www.popsike.c...nr=170517313129 taken from Popsike:
