Would that not possibly also be the case if they were genuine ?

As the tp's are from different artists and different periods of time, I consider this highly unlikely ...

Given the fact that - as radiojamaica also remarked - there's a normal cover with it and seeing that all these notes on labels are in the same handwriting, I take it as full poor fake.

*NOTE: Keep a picture of it to compare when five years later the same item should surface again without cover ... :evil: ... :lol: ...

The auction was ended today. Maybe the Greek does indeed read here.

This Corrosion, Dominion and Lucretia Acetates ... extremely rare ... and well, not cheap but surely worth the price ... :wink: ...

I see a testpress of Floodland regularly at the local record shop. I suspect it's for some re-press though. But I'll buy it and take photos if it would be interesting (if it's still in the shop)?

Check the deadwax. It should say:

Matrix / Runout (Side A, Etched): ✴ MR-441L A-1 ✴ MT. 1 DAMONT D
Matrix / Runout (Side B, Etched): ✴ MR-441L B-1 ✴ 2 MT DAMONT C

Cheers!

I might pick it up anyway since it's just £15.
