Post YOUR Collection Thread

[Sidwell4]

i've wondered what one of those sealed box-sets could be worth.
i've had for about 2 years and its almost 20 years old.
i've been dying to know what # it is.

Hi Abrahan, I'm still searching a sealed box set, as previously discussed. Please let me know if you decide to sell one. However, it appears that I am unable to send you a PM on these forums due to some settings?!!?. Regards!

I recently got an Aussie Barbarism CD in perfect condition pretty cheap, how many have you had and how rare do you consider this to be?

Looks lovely, but.... am I missing something? Is there a difference between those 7 copies of the German Stop Me single? Or the 5 copies of the German Sheila Take a bow? And do you have 7 copies of the UK Headmaster Ritual?

Are these all unique versions or do you just have multiple copies?

Hi Mikael, congratulation !

Yor are absolutely right, i dont know why, but in fact
the australien Barbarism CD is very, very rare.
You found the other CD singels from Australia in the
80's and 90's easily, also the australien Headmaster Ritual.

I havent seen the australien Barbarsim for a long time.

I had 2 copies, but gave one copy 10 years ago to a
friend in Holland.

Apart from the condition, there is no difference between the those
CD singels. These are all multiple copies and the UK Headmaster Ritual
is one of my favorite item.

Hi I.R. ,

So far I do own only version 1,2 and 3. Still after number 4 (I know there is one on vinyltap but too expensive , I think). On all my versions on RT 131 B1 side I have KISS MY SHADES TOO. Also , on RT 131 A1 side there are two or three short words which I can barely read (done my best) . Surely, you must have the same too...(I love this 7" vinyl with all these variations)
Cheers Moz

The very small text that you can see on the A side says 'a porky prime cut' and on the B side it simply says 'porky'.
These are not Morrissey's words, I understand they were printed by an engineer at the pressing plant and the meaning remains unknown.
Please note this text only features on the earlier versions (1 and 2 above).

Cheers,

I.R.
