russtcb Posted December 12, 2014 Share Posted December 12, 2014 I think that's an iron-on transfer. That's what I'm guessing as well. edit- You're right: http://thirdmanstore.com/iron-on-transfer Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kas1985 Posted December 13, 2014 Share Posted December 13, 2014 Got mine today too Got a slip mat. I Don't think it came from a previous vault because I don't have it but I jnow Ive seen it before. It is black red and white I think it came with a white stripes boxset If this is the one I think you are referring to, it was an incentive for preordering the "Under Great White Northern Lights" boxset. I got one from preordering, and also received another in the "vinyl roulette" in the TMR online store. It's a rather abstract red and white design on black felt that kinda looks like a steering wheel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottheisel Posted December 14, 2014 Share Posted December 14, 2014 I got a Third Man pin in the shape of Texas. I'm assuming this is from one of their SXSW pop-up shops. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jos464 Posted December 15, 2014 Share Posted December 15, 2014 I didn't get a bonus item with mine. Did they stop doing the roulette at some point in the day? I placed my order around 12-1 est. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ben Blackwell did an interview with Dust & Grooves (highly recommended) and he mentioned one of the copies of the hand painted "Lafayette Blues" single (only 15 made) went for "the high four-figures" which is probably a good jumping off point for this haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also White Stripes are a slightly more popular band than the Upholsterers. watchtower41 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also White Stripes are a slightly more popular band than the Upholsterers. There's a very good chance that some, if not most, of the Upholsters' will either never be found or will be accidentally destroyed. Now that Jack White is pretty huge, I feel like a small side project like this could go for quite a pretty penny. This is all just speculation though and you could totally be right. Who knows?

Not all of the 15 hand painted records have been found either. I am not saying this find isn't a valuable one. I could easily see it going for $10,000, just not the $20k+ the HPLB have gone for. I would say this record is probably the #3 most valuable Jack record after HPLB and the Ball & Biscuit 10". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natenomm Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 the Ball & Biscuit 10". I didn't even know that existed. Any more details about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
agaetisbyrjun Posted December 18, 2014 Share Posted December 18, 2014 I didn't even know that existed. Any more details about it? From White Swirl: This is a copy of the 10" Test Pressing of the White Stripes "There's no home for you here" backed with an unreleased version of "Ball & Biscuit (Live)", here forth known as the "10" Ball & Biscuit". This record was produced under Jack's guidance by White Stripes production manager Leo Silverman. XL's marketing department suggested it was too 'niche' and pushed for a 7" release instead so this never made it past the design phase and ultimately wasn't approved by Jack to be pressed. The 9:02 version of Ball & Biscuit was never used as it wouldn't fit on a standard 7" with any quality. The record was produced on a run of 10 copies pressed at ASL in London. It just happened that ASL had another 10" job running at the time on clear vinyl so they threw in the White Stripes stampers and the rest is history. It is the only White Stripes release on 10" vinyl or clear vinyl. It is also the only known release of this version of Ball & Biscuit done at Electric Lady Studio for a radio promotion. As for the whereabouts of the 10 known copies... Jack is said to have a copy or two in his private collection, two are in private collector hands (mine and another lucky souls), and the rest are said to be in the vaults at XL records, never to be released. This copy was obtained from the personal collection of Ben Blackwell as the letter shown authenticates. It has been played one time to make the video attached for all to enjoy. natenomm, watchtower41 and bossdj26 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
