MORE INFO:
Following is the original promotional verbiage for Vault #19:
Do you like the White Stripes? Do you like experiments? Do you like the Vault? Do you like combining all three? We do. For our 19th installment of the Vault, we're doing something we've never done before. Something that Vault members have been clamoring for…the exclusive, limited, colored vinyl edition of a record. As you probably know, TMR tries to release a limited version of every record we do. That limited edition is usually available only at certain locations or stores, while the black vinyl version is kept in print forever.
This package will consist of limited colored vinyl pressings of all of the White Stripes singles from their album Elephant. These include…
"Seven Nation Army"
"I Just Don't Know What to Do With Myself"
"The Hardest Button to Button"
"There's No Home For You Here"
The b-sides consist of covers of some of Detroit's most pre-eminent artists in 2003…
"Good to Me" written by Brendan Benson and Jason Falkner and originally released on Benson's 2002 album Lapalco.
"Who's to Say…" written by Dan Miller and released by his outfit Blanche in 2003 on their album If We Can't Trust the Doctors…
"St. Ides of March" written by the Soledad Brothers and released on their self-titled album of 2000.
As well as a White Stripes live medley of "I Fought Piranhas / Let's Build a Home" recorded at the legendary Electric Lady Studios in New York.
Each of these tracks has been remastered from the original analog sources, and in the case of "…March" and "Piranhas" where there were no analog masters, we used only the finest digital files that could withstand sitting unused on a hard drive for over ten years.
The artwork on all the singles has been tidied up, spell-checked and given that special Third Man "je ne sais quoi"
"There's No Home For You Here", which was originally coupled with a generic company sleeve, now has stunning new artwork. It looks electrifying!
And these sleeves FEEL amazing. Employing a process called (we're not making this up) "soft touch aqueous coating" each of these glue-pocket sleeves feels like a hybrid between rubber and lambskin. It's difficult to describe, but immediately noticeable and amazing in person. Each record will be pressed on clear vinyl with with an added vinyl highlight color insertion of either red, black or white. For "There's No Home…" all three of those colors will be added to clear vinyl, to make something truly exciting. All of this will be housed in a custom-made telescoping box, so that these singles can forever live together with distinction in your record collection. Later in 2014 each of the singles will be available individually, on black vinyl, with no box, to the general public.  

About Me: I'm a long time Ebay buyer and seller intent on selling a significant portion of my LP collection over the next year or two (or three!). I believe in the auction process, so I list my LPs with low opening bids and NO RESERVES. Please have a look at some of the feedback I've gotten over the years; you will be hard-pressed to find a better or more trustworthy source for high value collectibles. The LPs I sell here are routinely listed on other sites at very high asking prices. Here's your chance to get these fantastic rarities in an open auction, reflecting their true market value. I believe this is the most fair process for both buyer and seller -- and it's way more fun!


I look forward to getting rare, out of print records into the hands of music lovers, record collectors and audiophiles (I consider myself all of the above). All LPS stored in a smoke-free, climate controlled environment. 


COMBINED SHIPPING: I am more than happy to combine shipping. Ebay buyers pay the actual postage costs and a single $2 charge for shipping materials. 


PayPal Payments Only. Payment required within 3 days after the end of auction. All records will ship USPS Media Mail.
