Brenda With Twin Globes

[Steve Plumb]

Anyone seen this before?

I bought this at a do last weekend and proceeded to show it anyone and everyone who came by!

Must admit that i got a lot of blank looks BUT does this not make you feel good looking at Brenda with Twin Globes or have I not been looking in the right boxes over the years?

Please someone come on the thread and agree with me

Cheers

Steve

I've got one too- it's a styrene press- probably West Coast ?

Trust you, but funnily enough I was thinking along the same lines.

[Steve Plumb]

Yeah thought a few of you would think about your DVD collection

OK looks like it's not as unusual as i thought?

Anyway it's new to me and has taken it's pride of place on the shelves in the Motown section and the brown/yellow one now in the sales box

Thanks to everyone who replied

Cheers

Yes, as already mentioned it's a West Coast STYRENE Monarch. They used the globe design longer than other pressing plants.

Same thing happens with Gordy Badge / Script Design & SOUL Label.

Can be difficult to find certain numbers from MONARCH compared to other pressing plants.

Delta # 65505

Delta # 65503-X

Checking the Delta # 65505 & 65503-X

here >>> ANORAK'S CORNER Pressing Plant Info <<< on the MONARCH Chart dates it to around FEB / MARCH 1967

The RCA Matrix UK4M-2656-1- & UK4M-3228-1- Also Denotes 1967.

You will find the RCA Matrix STAMPED on the Vinyl press too.

Twin globes has copyright 1966 around the bottom whereas the other has 1967, old label blanks ????

Both have 1967 in body of label.

I believe that was the case with the West Coast Monarch Press, they used the old design for a while after the design changed.

We have some fantastic rarities because of it.
