Up for bid is a rare 7" EP, "Bullet" by The Misfits. This is an original 45, released by Plan 9 Records (PL1001) in 1978. Songs included are: Side A - Bullet / We Are 138 & Side B- Attitude / Hollywood Babylon. Here is a description of an original pressing from misfitscentral:
Plan 9: PL1001 (June 1978)1000 black vinyl copies in silk-screened gatefold sleeves with band photo and "Distributed by Ork" on back. Glenn experimented with the early sleeves by coloring the front yellow (from the car up) and then screen printing the art over it. Unlike other black vinyl copies, these sleeves were sealed instead of gatefold. Glenn decided not to use the sleeves, distributing only a few (5 to 15) to friends, and supposedly keeping the rest. There is also at least one copy with the John F. Kennedy wearing a blue jacket.
Here is a description of a bootleg press from misfitscentral:
BULLET ------ Plan 9: PL 1001 1986 Listless Recordings: LR2 1989 001 1989 Plan 9: PL 1001A 1989 1 Bullet | We Are 138 2 Attitude | Hollywood Babylon Format: 7" EP. Pressing: 1st: Black vinyl copies with gatefold sleeve. These bootlegs are amazingly similar to the original 1st pressing with only very slight differences: 1) Front cover of original is silkscreened. Bootleg copies are not silkscreened; the red and black colors were printed at the same time. The black and white colors on the bootleg are glossy, whereas original sleeves are a matte white color with black and red ink silk-screened over. 2) On the original, there are 4 to 5 intro grooves before "Bullet" actually starts playing. Bootleg copies have no more than 2 intro grooves. 3) Center labels on the original are glossy. Bootleg labels are less glossy and the smaller text is slightly blurrier. 4) Handwritten matrix etchings vary from original in spacing.First, this is a silk screened cover (look at the front of the picture sleeve at the Misfits logo and the blood spatter - you will see that the red ink is slightly askew to the pattern beneath it). The interior labels are glossy, with etched interior matrix info reading SP-1001-A MISFITS RICH FLORES / SP-1001-B MISFITS R.F. There are 4 intro grooves before "Bullet." The picture sleeve folds out and has not been glued. This is a true original press of this extremely rare 7", limited to 1000 copies. There is no insert included with this 7". 7" is VG++, with several tiny faint scuffs on either side. Interior label on the B side has a small scuff above The Misfits logo at the top. 7" is extremely clean and retains a nice gloss. Picture sleeve is VG++, with no tears. There is light edge wear. There is light ring wear on the back. There is a partial finger print on the back of the picture sleeve along the left white border near the top left corner.
