STEWART COPELAND

A little overpriced don't you think?!

The green checkerboard isn't even the rarest one is it?

No, it's the re-release - if it was the original '77 pressing I could understand it maybe, but not for that!

That's the equivalent of $100, right?

It sure is, unfortunately.

I have the black and white original sleeve, and I wouldn't give it up for the world...

Although I'd let Stewart, Sting or Henri borrow it.....lol

Watch it and see if anyone bids.

I'd want one of the ones Stewart put in the sleeve himself!
(Not that I'm into buying that shit right now! Tourzilla and AIG have tapped me dry)

is 50 quid really 100 bucks? I thought it was more like 75 bucks right now.

damn. I hate america

PT Barnum comes to mind.

Yeah, I have it 3 times and would not pay over £5 for the check sleeves.
I paid just near £30 for the BnW original - and know people who'd gladly pay more than that.
But the green check?! Forget it!!

Y'know what's cool about the original black and white version?

Those 7-inches were lovingly stuffed in the sleeve by none other than the man himself.

So, I guess, ahem, if you've ever dreamt of being lovingly stuffed by Stewart, you'd better have one of these.


'Cause that's probably as close as you are going to get.

only if it's the black and white cover with these label designs

all the other black and white versions are from around October 1977 or even later and only the very first few thousand copies have supposedly gone through the master's hands

Just checked.
Mine was stuffed by the master.
So was Empty's.

if it was the orange and black check cover then maybe !!

Indeed I saw one of them go for £120 on eBay last month
