Description
PLEASE READ: This record is brand new and unplayed, however - it had a small leak in the center hole after I bought it. I have glued around the center hole as well as the hole used to plug the record after it was filled with liquid. It has not leaked at all since I glued it. Please see pictures above.
The 12-inch single of Jack White’s “Sixteen Saltines” comes complete with a playable etching on the b-side (designed by George Ingram), a cover of U2?s “Love is Blindness.” Truly a sight to behold, the etching depicts Third Man’s iconic logo and the grooves of the record play through the image, presenting consumers with the world’s first-ever playable etched record ®.This is an entirely different process (and look) from your Styx and Split Enz records from the 80?s. No lasers, holograms, or rainbows are involved in this playable etching.
As if that weren’t enough, Third Man took the playable etching one step further and used the same parts to make a limited-edition version of the “Saltines” 12-inch single. Not only is the etching playable, but the record itself is pressed on clear vinyl and filled with psychedelic blue liquid. While the soundtrack for the 1978 film The Black Hole was initially prototyped as a liquid-filled disc, problems with leakage prevented it from ever being released. The liquid-filled “Saltines” is the first-ever disc of its kind to be made available to the public.
I am also including the very Limited edition Record Store Day 2012 pressing of The White Stripes on black and red swirl vinyl! Tracks: "Hand Springs" "Red Death at 6:14"
Continuing in the mission of reissuing the nuggets of the White Stripes’ back catalog, Third Man plays Dr. Frankenstein/matchmaker to two stand-alone songs from the high time of the year 2000. “Hand Springs” was originally released as a split-single with the Dirtbombs and included free in issue #19 of Multiball magazine. “Red Death at 6:14” was initially released on the Jack White-produced compilation “Sympathetic Sounds of Detroit” and was later made available as a one-sided single from the folks at MOJO magazine. Both songs are quintessential White Stripes jams and finally pairing them together here makes (arguably) one of the best Stripes singles ever.
Record Condition: This record is brand new and unplayed!
And, last, but certainly not least! Karen Elson's "Milk and Honey" and "Winter's Going". Extremely Limited Edition. Honey colored vinyl with white wisp. KAREN ELSON “MILK AND HONEY” Third Man is releasing the new single from Karen Elson. The cover of Jackson C. Frank’s “Milk and Honey” is pressed on milk and honey.

I highly recommend expedited shipping and insurance, though it is not required. Disclaimer on clear sleeve applies to this auction as well. No returns, no guarantees, no refunds.
