I shouldn't be messing with this dude anyways but I went against better judgement and copped a copy of Dyson's Faces on DMC (pink cover) from this very irreputable dealer. Now, it was sealed and he wouldn't let me open it. Fine. Got it home and it isn't a teppan sleeve (uh-oh). I open it up and it has no vigible signs of aging, smells new BUT the sleeve inside is printed with the photos etc. If it is a boot it is one of abnormal care. It says "Made In Canada" which could explain it not being a teppan but I swear I can see pixelation on the cover, a very un-70's thing to have in the artwork. Does anyone have a sure original and can give me the runout matrix or any thing that might distinctly prove one way or the other so I can either feel happy in my purchase or go ring his f-ing neck. does anyone know if this got re-ished recently? This is giving me a headache. I'm hoping that

Has anyone seen this for sale anywhere? The label sure looks real alright...
Hope this helps.
No one has this record? Theres a break on it you know
Do those of you who had it remember if it was on a cardboard printed on new style jacket (printing direct to the white cardboard sleeve) or if it was a teppan, you know paper wrap, with the printing on the paper and then wrapped around two sheets of cardboard?
I apologize now to the rest of the strut for making such a big deal about this but I got a little money at stake here and I want to go back and buss dude if he tried to cheat me by passing off a reissue as a real one.
i don't even know that record. who was the seller ? recism ? archandd ?
"Thes, i swear to you its an original... Im doing a movie/book deal with the artist, i got it out of the personal collection"
I won't add more info to this thread, though, because I don't have the OG.
Good luck with all this.
it was a big one in japan some years back and that's where it was reissued too.
as quo said, last fall dude at fmu was selling multiple copies of both the og as well as the japanese reissue.
The copy I have:
Quo (and Thes)
these are not real.
they are not a "warehouse" find they are bootlegs.
seeing him at your spot is like...
