I had a response from JM: "We do not have this 45 anymore so I can't check, it is A&M distributed so there will be other variations across the country" I've noticed that Discogs now includes this label variation (I'm sure this wasn't there before). I think the information was added a few days ago by kwlstuf. I didn't see Woodbutchers last post asking for info on what's happened to JM's YT channel so I can't comment. Regarding the original topic, I am now convinced my copy is an authentic 1966 east coast stock issue, Thanks to all for your contributions. Regards Kilo

Just to update anyone interested in this thread, I’ve sent John Manship a couple of messages asking for run out matrix information on the copy shown on the August 2024 You Tube video. So far I’ve not had any reply. Maybe whoever bought that copy from JM could confirm the run out matrix. Here’s hoping

It’s also possible it could be /B. Difficult to tell with a scratched line

There are no other marks in the run out. The other side has OM 420 1B. It’s possible the 1B is IB or even /B

I have emailed John Manship to ask if the copy he had on You Tube was a Monarch press or had OM 419 1B in the run out. If he replies I will copy the response on this forum. Thanks for all your valued input it leads me to conclude that the authenticity of my copy depends on what is on the run out. It’s what’s at the end of the grooves that counts😄

You would also have to edit the (419) to (OM419). However, it looks like I've been shafted again

I've seen the 2019 UR on Discogs and my copy isn't like that, the runout is a lot wider than mine. My copy is Styrene with a printed label, there is a difference on the label to the picture shown on the 1966 Discogs entry, on the right hand side, the printing is: 10 Irving Music (BMI) Time 2:20 (OM419) Also the printing partly covers the hand instead of being underneath it so I can't see this being a photocopy label. The runout has scratched OM 419 1B.

Has Brice Coefield - Ain't That Right ever been booted on Omen Issue? Do all copies have a Monarch Delta number?

I’ve got a copy now

Anyone got a copy for sale reasonably priced
