From memory I think it cost me well over a thousand times the marked price.

Now that's appreciation for you...

Don't recall ever seeing the Olivers pic sleeve before. Too cool! Great two-sider and the RCA press is a wonderful major-label cheapie. That sleeve must be very hard to find.

Is the Olivers a sleeve or an promo-insert-thing? TBM doesnt list a PS and the scan looks like a single sheet. Very cool either way!

It's a single sided promo insert. But it's exactly the same size as a 45 sleeve, and looks the part when displayed with the 45 in its plastic cover. The Olivers Phalanx 45 is beyond rare by itself, and took me over 10 years to find a copy. I estimate 45+insert is probably in the sub-5 known copy category. It's certainly the only copy I've ever seen.

Here's another cool Olivers item, but it's a letterpress poster, not a 45 sleeve.
It's a big-ish poster, about 24 inches tall.

 

[bosshoss]

And this one - it's about 18 inches tall

Head on the chopping block!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Too much!

Is that bradx in the middle. Or maybe his dad?

OH MY GOD... i'm late to this post.... but Mark, you have the best collection on earth..... I didn't have a clue The Plagues - To Wonder had a picture sleeve, I love that track, how much would a pic sleeve for said 45 set me back??

I love the trolls pic sleeve too, so great.

Damn.... I want Lawson and Four more as well.... Mark, you have all the best records!!!

 

[legbarecords]

The Lawson and four more is easy but classy and cool! Maybe $150

Something Italian to look at. Yes, I know the Primitives and Rokes were both British, but since both groups chose to live and perform in Italy, and release records there singing in Italian with fake Italian accents...

Woah, some seriously rare & killer 45's here !

Here's a couple of personal faves not pictured above. Apaches deliver a solid Kinks cover, the New Dangers flipside is a great primitive mid tempo tambourine smackin' guitar driven jagged beat raver.

My complete ( i.e. woefully in-complete) Malaysian collection. Quality overrides concerns regarding quantity in this instance.

And some very colourful Australasian 45s and eps

Two perhaps not so very colorful, yet still worthwhile OZ EP's--->

Wrist slit lost cause jangle ( in the case of the White Angles, Angle jangle I suppose...) paired with a minor key Farfisa-ish rainy day sounding lament courtesy of the UK/Belgian Famous Crew --->

Best Young Rascals cover I've heard, would have worked nicely as a Lavette flip. Hoochie Coochies is a bit over the top, & why not?? Two totally NOT Boering S.A offerings...

Just found this thing and it is one of my favorite picture sleeves I have!

Not sure if this counts as a "sleeve" but









And Then under the heading of "fan art"
