bluescreenlife Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 I am looking for someone who has a first pressing on clear /100 who can take a photo of it. I ordered a green translucent (/500) variant from discogs and I'm pretty sure what showed up is the even rarer clear variant, it's like a coke bottle green/clear but is definitely different than the green ones I've seen. Just looking to verify what variant I have. Here's a pic of mine: http://i.imgur.com/57hdl2w.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THE_James_Champ Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 That's coke bottle, not clear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluescreenlife Posted September 27, 2015 Author Share Posted September 27, 2015 That's coke bottle, not clear. Then what the hell do I have? They've pressed "clear" and "green translucent" but this is the green translucent: http://i.imgur.com/0WyRJRc.jpg Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
themeconspiracy Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 that's the clear. unless there was more than one clear pressing (i know they did 2 "clears" for TGUK 4MM and one is more coke bottle, the other more pure clear) at any rate, definitely not the green. this is the green.

Thanks, that clears it up. Well I got a hell of a deal on mine for $25 then! Pains me to see that record on the floor though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pains me to see that record on the floor though. yeah. not everyone feels the need to throw that silly "coke bottle" label on their clears. and i'm pretty sure the distinction between the different "colors" of "clear" wasn't even a thing 13 years ago. oh. and that's not my photo. grabbed off deadformat. i would never do that to a record of mine. besides, i only have the 1st press red of AAR S/T.

mike Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Yeah, that's the first press. And people did call that coke bottle clear then, but it wasn't like a choice when you got records pressed. Just some plant's clears looked like that, some were the super clear. And to get nerdy since the opportunity is here, there were also some cool, really district transitional colors in that first press. Here's a pink I kept, and even my clear still has a bunch of red streaks. There was a baby blue too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
