THE REPLACEMENTS 

"STINK" 12"

VERY RARE TEST PRESSING


Very unique test pressing that features the A-side on both sides of this record. Numbered 2 out of 5.


 CONDITION: Mint. Looks unplayed. 


Here is a true collector's item right here. This is a one of a kind test pressing that features side A of the classic album on both sides of this record. One side of this test pressing features a pressing of the A side tracks that sound too fast and the other side features the side A tracks at the normal speed. This appears to be for a reissue pressing of "Stink" as the matrix is different than the original pressing on Twin Tone from years ago. It's unclear exactly when it's from. Perhaps it’s an odd test pressing for an unofficial pressing of this, I’m not exactly sure. I got this about a year and a half ago from a collector. This matrix reads "A Side" & "A RE". It seems 2 sets of stampers were being tested to make sure they were correct.


The labels feature the original Twin Tone catalog number written on them: TTR-8228 and seems to be numbered 2 out of 5. It seems logical to conclude that ONLY 5 of these unique test pressings were ever made. This item is a very interesting and unique pressing in the Replacements vinyl discography. 


Test pressings are quite rare and only made in small quantities. They are pressed prior to the actual commercial copies and are used for quality testing before the actual pressing is manufactured.


Please see the photos for more information. I currently have up a few other rare records. I will gladly combine shipping. Win more than one item you'll save money!  


Shipping is $3.99 in the USA, $15.49 to Canada, and $20.49 to the rest of the world. Payment via Paypal please. Must pay within 3 days of winning. If you would like insurance, please let me know and I will give you a quote.
