Great job with the all scans tiorted!

very appropriate; considering the current stage of the automotive industry.

I bought the "Big 3" 7" on red vinyl about 2 years ago for ~ 25 Euros... Does anyone here know how many of these actually exist???

[7th_son]

It seems to me that with most (all) of the sympathy presses, the precise number pressed has remained elusive. There are sure as shit way less than on black vinyl though. Maybe someone else can chime in on this?

[Tonic&Gin]

I have it listed as three hundred. Could be up to five hundred though.

Does anyone know where i can find one of the red vinyl version? Big Three has always been a favorite of mine.

Looking to buy.

[higherlimits]

I have an extra one. I'm looking for TMR tri-colors, TMR LA releases and/or Cash. PM me with an offer.

I bought a copy of this 7" off EBay. Trying to figure out if I got a Rainbow Repress version. If it were where would it be labeled as such? It is black vinyl and says SFTRI 578. If it's not Rainbow, does anyone know if the red and black versions were issued concurrently? Thanks.

Look at the text in the run-out of each side then compare to:







The bottom one is the Rainbo one and has additional text R- followed by five digits as well as the SFTRI-578-A text. On the A side, the extra text is roughly at the 2 o'clock position when the SFTRI text is at the 12 o'clock position (quite faint in the photograph).

The non-Rainbo black version came out around the same time as the red version

many thanks, barrowc, for clearly breaking it down! so glad i found this forum--newbie collector here. alas, i did get the rainbo but still precious to me.

Anybody have an extra copy they're looking to sell or trade? I don't really have a lot to trade right now, but let me know. Thanks.

I don't think it's the case, but is there a red rainbo repress too, or just black??
