DAMN! Nice score!shaneoftheroad wrote:I found this at a ridiculously low BIN on eBay. I recognized the indentation on the label as possibly being a true first pressing so I bought it sight-unseen less than a minute after it went up. Seller didn't list any stamper information. Well it finally arrived today and I'll be damned if it isn't a true first pressing. It has some Goodwill-style scuffs but both sides play through beautifully. I'm pleased.
The runoff information tells me this is from the first stampers immediately after the demos were pressed, thus making it a true first consumer pressing. So I guess now I need to complete my UK first pressing Beatles singles collection. Why not?

Nashville --> Australia --> Norway.
A long search after the poster has ended, and even left me with spare B&B's and buttons.
Big thanks to Luke!

Took me five years to find a poster, and have money to buy it simultaniously. But it was fun chasing it down too. Enjoy the chase.

It sounds like Luke is some sort of vinyl/poster folk hero. Everywhere I turn someone is thanking Luke. Good on you Luke.avrate wrote:Ditto.achouza wrote:avrate wrote:Nashville --> Australia --> Norway.

Hands down one of the best Blue Room gig posters. Did Miles do that one? Speaking of, what's he up to these days?avrate wrote:Nashville --> Australia --> Norway.
