V.i.p. Logo?

[SHEFFSOUL]

wondered which if either are considered more collectable or rarer..

[Soul-slider]

Vows 'Tell Me'

Dalton Boys 'I've Been Cheated'

Lollipops 'Cheating Is Telling On You'

Dogs 'Love's Gone Bad'

Ivy Joe Hunter 'I Can Feel the Pain'

 

All these becoming harder and harder to get.

The Vows has 2 style labels.One with double horizontal bars,one plain.Maybe another.?

[Soul-slider]

Think mine is plain.

Early Supremes tune on the flip 'Buttered Popcorn'. As we all know, Morris Chestnut on lead for the Vows, brilliant record.

Patrice Holloway is possibly the hardest on the label with Stevie/Boy of my dreams. Two or three known copies I think.

[The Yank]

Debbie Dean "Why Am I Loving You" is another hard to find V.I.P. .

[SHEFFSOUL]

ok..but whats the relevance to the logo styles?  staggered or straight..why the difference, is either rarer/more collectable? promos obviously..

The question was which is rarer.Possibly one logo may be rarer than another.Over to you.

Without looking just a change of design isn't it? Patrice Holloway and the earlier ones on the plain yellow with two bars, several of them withdrawn. The multicoloured a later design.

The rarest VIP 45s in my experience are the West Coast styrene multi coloured promos. Somey of them are also double sided as opposed to having the same song on both sides.  They also look and sound much better. 

 

Here's an example, although this particular one is a same song sided demo:

Just piecing together the different pressing plants, staggered VIP appears on quite a few releases and I believe.
Looking at the Layout, gives a clue to pressing plant.

WEST COAST (Styrene Bold Text) - Expect a Multicoloured DEMO, although some releases are Black / White

STYRENE - Monarch Pressing Plant (DELTA # In Deadwax)




EAST COAST = STRAIGHT VIP LOGO (Vinyl) Label Number to right.

Vinyl "Arp" Pressing Plant




EAST COAST = DOUBLE SIDED STOCK COPY - (USED FOR PROMOTION I BELEIVE)

Vinyl "Arp" Pressing Plant

 

MIDWEST = STAGGERED VIP LOGO (Vinyl) Label Number at Bottom.

Vinyl- The copies I have in the Collection have a "Nashville Matrix" in the Deadwax


The position of the Label Credits, match on all three.

WEST COAST Black / White DEMO
STYRENE - Monarch Pressing Plant (DELTA # In Deadwax)

 

 

 

EAST COAST
Vinyl "Arp" Pressing Plant

 

 

Alignment

 

Looking at the Text Alignment on the Label credits, 

The"ARP" press, can usually be determined by the Fully Left or Right Justification.

 

MIDWEST
Vinyl - The copies I have in the Collection have a "Nashville Matrix" in the Deadwax

I take it you mean in general throughout the label Dave as apposed to the rarest full stop?
