Did I dream a Twans on auction? Have I slept a week?

Thought I'd resurrect this rather than start a new thread. Are these Italian copies reissues? (disco depositato / made in Italy / tutti i diritti riservato) I was thinking yes, but stamped matrix MLCS 8469 22-2-73. Could the 22-2-73 be a stamped press date 22 Feb 1973? Fanciful I know but got me thinking (should have posted tomorrow, 46th anniversary!!) Gatefold sleeve, but thin card and glossy? Any info, thanks, Dean.

Adding to the popular vote, Hand it Over for me

Other pics:

I'll try to get a sound clip posted , although first attempt said File too big. Few pops/crackles on run in, minor audible background crackle in parts but you'd have to listen for it. No jumps or skips . If all else fails can call your phone and play it down phone tomorrow evening.

PayPal UK first class signed for included rest of world contact me. Couldn't post other pics as over limit will try addition later.

Sorry for delay, just seen. Will consider and get back, although I tend to favour if I'm offering an item for sale I'll put a price on it, if I post a want I'll offer a price.

Do an occasional spot for Steve Studge (not on here), with Banner (on here), in a Mansfield Sunday afternoon bar, that odd mix of interested and interesting scene people, local commercial / Motown enthusiasts, and not a clue how 'much is the beer' types. Many of the above have been experienced: Play some Motown (look at the label going round f*** wit); Have you got any Billy Joel (nope); Can you play something I like (what do you like) I don't know what it's called. But my favourite: Can I sing with you? (What???) Can I sing with you? (You don't really understand this DJ thing do you?) I didn't realise I had such a good mic voice!!!!

How much are we discussing, everything for sale at a price?

Thanks Mick

Curious regarding value. I'm aware this is hardly a credible sound these days, just a memory of Nottingham Palais Dayers. JM 7th Edition guide has price at £10, but ....... No US issue on Popsike and only 3 demo's $27 - $54. Any value as a collectable??

Thanks for response, don't think I want it that much!!! Always thought it more elusive than initial price guides gave it.

Bit of an odd one, looking for an original not the 70s boot. Am I right in thinking orig is styrene and boot is vinyl? I don't think there's much to tell between them apart from principles! Its the instrumental I'm after so prefer that to be the clean side if that becomes an issue? I usually like to offer a price but have no idea on this? Thanks, Dean
