White Swirl

All the V2, XL, and WB singles, plus 2 Vault singles.

Looks like you got that all sorted out!
Congrats.

That's purty. I love me some Racs, need to get on the stick and start collecting their stuff. When I get beyond being broke, of course...

I should put all of mine in a white sleeve as well. None of them come with them..

It really is awesome, buddy.

Definitely! I always stockpile paper and plastic sleeves for all my records when I visit the local record store. It's a good habit to do!

Yep, I always have surplus 7" paper sleeves because I don't store my vinyl in the actual picture sleeve to prevent ring wear.

that would be a hell of a task for me to do starting now...

Nice set. Now you know what I'm after with my record label. I would love to see someone post a complete set 5 years down the road. Much like these, I want it to take some work and digging for someone to put a set together.
Grats man. After seeing this, I'm not sure I even have the complete Racs set now. Could you make a list with descriptions?

Yessir...That's my list.

Since this is now an open thread...I will post my photo here now too



I also have the vault singles but left them out at the time of the photo due to them not being in the "letter series"

Does anyone else here on swirl have the complete set, or are Greg and I the only ones? (I doubt it)

Let's see your photos people..

Ya, very cool idea Mark!! These records were the first singles I went after when I started collecting. They were really cheap and quite a few around at the time and I need in time they would be difficult to put together as a whole. Really glad to see others are following at the chase is getting harder.

Does anyone else's Saboteurs SASG 7" feel like it could crack very easy. Its thinner and more crackable than standard US 7" vinyl
