boba Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 Hi All, Just wondering why The Classics - Looking For A Love Of My Own - came out on two different labels Wise World and Wide World. mines on Wide World Any Info appreciated ATB Steve probably just a screw up at the pressing plant. I'm not sure if one is rarer than the other, in my experience I've seen them about the same amount... but although it was a hit in chicago, I haven't seen that many copies.
Robbk Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 A printer error on one pressing order. I've gone though probably over several million 45s since that record was released (I lived in Chicago at the time). I'd say I've seen more of Wise World(maybe 60%-40%). And, it was pressed with several label background colours.

Also, the font is different between wise world and wide world, like one has sort of weird slanty text and the other is block text.
Pete S Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 It would make sense of the label was really called Wide World though wouldn't it, I mean, what's a Wise World?
boba Posted February 10, 2012 Posted February 10, 2012 It would make sense of the label was really called Wide World though wouldn't it, I mean, what's a Wise World? the label was called Wise World though, there are other releases on the label. However, I could see why there would be a mistake printing of "Wide World".
