OldMod67 28th Feb 2021 | | BookVespa - Polo Books | I purchased this from a bookstall at a market in Rome in the Summer of 2001. I think it cost about £3.

|
OldMod67 17th Feb 2021 | | VHSReady Steady Go! Volume One - Dave Clark International / Picture Music | Dated 1983, but I think this was actually a reissue. I reckon I got it about '84, but if anyone has a more accurate date, feel free to change of course.
|
OldMod67 17th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Glove - Blue Sunshine | I can't give a specific year, but I believe this barcoded reissue is from the late 1980s. Hopefully someone can provide more detail. The ad, however, is for the original release.

|
OldMod67 13th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - My Generation | The sticker on the sleeve relates to the box set Phases, from which this edition of the album originates. It came out in the UK around May of 1981, some retailers splitting the box. I picked up Sell Out, A Quick One and Who's Next all from the set, from the same shop. The 2675 216 is the overall number for the set.

OldMod67 12th Feb 2021 | | BookVarious Authors - The Love You Make | @JPGR&B Thanks for that, I only use an old Kindle now, so actively encourage catters to replace these later scans. In this case my copy is obviously knack'd too which doesn't help! Cheers.
|
OldMod67 11th Feb 2021 | | BookVarious Authors - The Love You Make | Added image of my rather tatty paperback. I did buy this new back in the eighties, I can't quite see how it became so dog-eared...

|
OldMod67 10th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Who - My Generation | Popped an ad on from one of my old cuttings folders. There was (if I recall correctly) some confusion over 'The Who on tour' blurb (venues no longer existing etc)
|
OldMod67 10th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Lambrettas - Beat Boys In The Jet Age | Just found this ad in my archive (a bunch of folders containing cuttings that used to be on my wall, then scrapbooks, then bags) Some I dated on the reverse, some like this have nothing but Blue-Tac residue..

OldMod67 9th Feb 2021 | | Vinyl AlbumThe Glove - Blue Sunshine | Images added. The picture of the Inner 'swirl' on bag is shown as aligned with lyric side, not repositioned, as in the deluxe CD tray.
|
OldMod67 6th Feb 2021 | | CD AlbumThe Glove - Blue Sunshine | Images added. I'm still relying on a Kindle, so as always if anyone cares to replace with better quality images, please do!
The composer credits I've entered are based on the information in the booklet, which credits lyrics. The actual credits page states 'All songs written, arranged, played and directed by Steven Severin and Robert Smith' so it may be that Severin, Smith can be entered for all.

OldMod67 28th Jan 2021 | | BookDr. Edward Force - Corgi Toys | @JPGR&B A quick flick through reveals a few, but there may be more. Unfortunately the groupings are mostly by model type and number. Apart from the Aston's, there's the 2cv, the bobsled and Moon Buggy. The gold Aston is also in there somewhere.

OldMod67 27th Jan 2021 | | BookMario Puzo - The Godfather | Cover added (rather well-read)

OldMod67 27th Jan 2021 | | BookDr. Edward Force - Corgi Toys | Book size 15 x 23 cm. There are also a number of b&w illustrations up to p32.
This is the second edition (revised and enlarged)
We used to price up imports manually on reverse. This one cost me £14.95 retail (less my staff discount at the time)

OldMod67 27th Jan 2021 | | Music MemorabiliaThe Jam - The Jam 'In The City' Album Badge | Is this the 'standard' 1" size of a bit larger? I remember some 70s music badges were a bit larger, with that tin backing and safety pin. I'm sure I had a version of this design on a dark red finish, but a bit more than 1" diameter. I'll have a dig around.
