Just for information: I have closely examined the label and am sure that it has not been tampered with in any way. The edge of the label runs in seamlessly with the vinyl. (It has no raised section where it meets the vinyl, as a label planted on would have) I hope this helps clear things up...

I have posted the best pictures that I could get within this thread. I think one of them clearly shows the word 'Penthouse'. The next photo shows 12PoPs 1621 A-1-1-1 quite clearly. I couldn't capture all of the 'What kind of man reads denim delinquent' in one shot, so separated it into two...

I couldn't find any information about the vinyl prior to posting the initial question in this thread, that's why I came here to ask for expert advice.,and many thanks to those who have given it . I agree that it looks as if a blank label has been stuck on, but have tried to show the record as...

I haven't listed the item yet, but I intend to in the next couple of days. I will post the link in this thread when I have done it. Cheers Simon

Hi, Could you please explain why it is obviously fake? Thanks Simon

Hi roky I have uploaded all the photos that I am using on Ebay. Hope this helps & any input will be appreciated All the best Simon

Thank you both for your input and advice, I now know that it is a test pressing and pretty rare, along with a ball park value. I do intend to sell the item, so could anyone please give their thoughts on whether EBay or Discogs would be the best place to sell it. (or perhaps here?) Thanks again...

Thanks for your reply mrellio. I did suspect that it was a test pressing, but thought I would ask the people here for their advice. I am systematically clearing my collection due to personal reasons and am once again asking for you advice as to the value of this item, as I intend/need to sell a...

Many thanks for the link Del. Unfortunately I couldn't really find any direct information that was specific to my original question. Perhaps I overlooked something, and if possible, would appreciate a direct description. Thanks again for your time Simon

Hi, I was wondering if someone could please advise. I am having a tidy up of my Smiths and Moz stuff and came across a few versions of Interesting Drug. One of the 12" vinyl is in the brown sleeve with the 'Special Etched Disc' sticker on the front (12POPS1621). The Vinyl itself has the 2 tracks...

Thanks for the input and information ordinaryboy86 One would have thought that on production of a 'faulty/substandard' item that they wouldn't see the light of day? It is quite interesting, and to be honest, I quite like the effect. Thanks again Simon

Thanks very much for the information and link darby1974. I only read the 7" promo paragraph, but couldn't see any information regarding the torn label. Am I missing something?? Do you think the torn/shattered label will have a effect on the rarity of the item? (negative or positive)?? Thanks...
