SOLD The Relatives original 8x10 promo glossy for this 1970s NYC soul group who only released one single under this name ("She Got Soul / Three Kinds Of Love" on Wow) but were AKA The Kac-Ties / The Relations / Jackie & the Umpires. From the collection of Stan R. Krause -- found in the cover of a completely unrelated LP. $30 postpaid in the USA, inquire for overseas. DM to reserve, not in comments below.
SOLD: lot of 8 homemade boot 8-tracks circa 1980, mostly Grateful Dead and related, but you get one Doors for good measure. I consider these things folk art and am selling them mostly for the incredible drawings, but all rollers are fine and pads are intact. Just no guarantee that they won't need repair if you really want to play them. Recently rescued from a suburban NJ basement with lots of Led Zeppelin posters tacked up on the wood paneled walls. $50 postpaid in the USA, inquire for overseas.

SOLD #JamesChance of #TheContortions and #KristianHoffman of #TheMumps original unique black and white 8x10 vintage photo from the late 1970s by #BillArning, titled and signed on the reverse. Arning was in the band #TheStudentTeachers and later moved from the music world to the art world (as director of #WhiteColumns, etc.) Despite the high quality of his photos, he is almost completely unknown today as a photographer except for his images on the #TeenageJesusAndTheJerks "Orphans" single. This is from the estate of #JDMartignon who owned #MidnightRecords, the label and store in New York City. These photos were taken to accompany articles he was writing in the 1970s for French publications about the early NYC punk scene. $100 postpaid in the US. Inquire for overseas.

SOLD: The Birthday Party 1981 flyer for the Chicago stop on their 1st USA tour. Different (better!) design than the version documented on the From The Archives site. The Effigies opened but don't appear on this version. First bit of early Nick Cave paper I've ever handled. In beautiful condition. $75 postpaid in the USA, inquire for overseas.

SOLD: circa 1981 membership card to #TheCavern, the short-lived music club in Tribeca, NYC best known (if you can even say that) for providing the name for the #LiquidLiquid song "Cavern". Rare item for the serious collector of NYC punk club memorabilia. $25 postpaid in the USA, inquire for overseas. DM to reserve, not in comments below.
SOLD: Love "7 And 7 Is" original 1966 sheet music. I consider this the holy grail of '60s garage rock sheet music, although it makes sense it exists because this was in fact a top 40 hit, peaking at number 33. I bought a perfect example of this about a decade ago for $250 (!) although a perfect one today probably tops out at $150. Unfortunately this one is far from perfect. It's missing the top left corner. There is assorted staining and toning of the paper. But it exists and I've priced it accordingly. See the last two slides for the best details of the musical score. $30 postpaid in the USA, inquire for overseas. DM to reserve, not in comments below.

SOLD #JohnCage "Notations" original 1969 hardcover experimental music / art book published by #SomethingElsePress. The good: it's complete with dust jacket, binding is solid, interior pages are relatively clean and unmarked. The bad: dust jacket is a bit dirty and has tears at top-front and top of spine. The spine itself has a small tear / crack. Cover shows light foxing at top. Top of page edges are darkly stained (or was it printed this way?) Priced to sell at $200 postpaid in the US, inquire for overseas. DM to reserve, not in comments below. The only copy on Amazon is $400 and is missing the dust jacket. The cheapest copy on Abebooks is $425. If you're looking for a completely readable/usable copy discounted for condition, this is the one for you.
Interrupting 6+ months of silence on this account (sorry!) to mention I've got some consignments in Catalog Sale's (@catalogsale ) 3rd auction on December 5. If you haven't heard of these guys yet, they are putting together great sales at the intersection of fine art and design and folk art and counterculture. Pic 1: original music-themed collage by the French comic artist Philippe Caza as published in VH 101 magazine. A very early (1971) and unusual work for this artist. Pic 2: A 1970s Bill Arning photograph of Mumps vocalist and gay icon Lance Loud photobombing Andy Warhol probably at CBGB or Max's. Pic 3: a set of pop art style portraits of off-off Broadway director John Vaccaro by the photographer Lee Black Childers, presented by Childers to Vaccaro in 1991. Please see the @catalogsale profile for a link to the auction. And watch this space for the return of my own set sales, thanks.
FOR SALE: #21stCenturyLtd glossy 8x10 promo photo fully autographed on the back to "Larry". This Los Angeles soul group released a couple of singles in the early '70s and appeared on the #Blacula soundtrack before 3/5 of them went on to #TheWattsline which was #QuincyJones vocal backing group in the mid to late '70s. #CharlesMay and #JoshAlbertHailey also released solo gospel records in the '70s. Photo is in very nice condition with just one little tear at the top. $25 postpaid in the US, inquire for overseas. DM to reserve, not in comments below. Add $5 if you want a deadstock copy of the original pre-Atco 1971 pressing of their first single. I have the singles for $10 plus shipping on #discogs but it would sell directly for $10 postpaid (USA) If anyone needs.

FOR SALE: #EinsturzendeNeubauten partial roll of 3.5" square black and white stickers promoting the "Haus Der Luege" 1989 album on #RoughTradeRecords. There's a half inch of stickers on the slightly crushed cardboard core, surely well over 100 stickers. The first half dozen are heavily worn but once you get into the roll they just have minor edge wear on the right and left sides at worst. $40 postpaid in the US, inquire for overseas. DM to reserve, not in comments below.
SOLD: The Last #WholeEarthCatalog, 8th printing out of at least 11 that I'm aware of. A bit different from what I usually post here, although I did start this account with some vintage pins / badges related to this, and they were quite popular so here goes. This one's in well above average condition. They're usually pretty beat up given the newsprint paper used and how people handled them. There's some cover wear and some small issues at top and bottom of the spine but the interior pages are less toned than usual and I don't see any writing or markings. I find about one to two of these a year and they always move quickly on Amazon, but fuck Amazon. $50 postpaid in the USA. Inquire for overseas but it'll weigh 4 pounds packed so it won't be cheap.
