The Smiths
Hatful of Hollow
Vinyl LP in gatefold sleeve
Rough Trade "ROUGH 76"
(Relisted due to non payer!)
Ok, this is a weird one!
I've had this for over 20 years and have never seen another one like it?!
As you can see from the pictures the A-side label has a light blue rectangle at an angle over the word "Hatful"!
The B-side doesn't?!
I've scoured eBay/Amazon/Interweb over the years and never seen one like it? All I can think is that it was some kind of test print? Maybe an error? No idea.
The other unique part is the inner sleeve, it's extremely dark blue, again I've never seen one like it before?!
The only conclusion I've come to is that it was some kind of "in house" copy that Rough Trade would have used to check colours etc?
The vinyl is also much thinner than another regular copy I have, again suggesting that this is a pre production copy?
The gatefold sleeve is an early print with the "Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd" imprint.
Anyway I'll leave it up to you why you think it exists in this form but it's certainly unique. (If you have a similar copy please tell me)
The vinyl is in fairly poor condition,
The sleeve and inner are in good condition.
The 5th photo shows the dark blue inner next to the usual light blue inner from another copy, only the dark blue inner is included.
From a pet free, smoke free home.
Sent in very heavy duty packaging.
