ITEM DESCRIPTION

Since I finished sorting my big collection of Japanese pressing old rock singles/EPs, I am going to put rare Japanese pressing records on my auction.  I think some are first time on eBay, so please watch and enjoy my future auction!

This is a set of 2 DAVID BOWIE Japanese pressing single "Day-In Day-Out".  Also, the 2 copies I am selling this time are WHITE LABEL PROMOTIONAL COPY & Very Rare TEST PRESS COPY!

The W/L PROMOTIONAL COPY came with the colored sleeve that is same as the one for the stock copy, and also, the lyric insert is included.  And, the price of front sleeve is covered with the sample sticker to make the copy not for sale.  I think no special sleeve was made for the promotional copy of this title.  The release date and a Japanese note that means "promotional copy" are added to each white label.  I am showing both A and B labels below, so please find them.

The TEST PRESSING COPY came with a Xerox insert sleeve.  Also, it seems that the length of the song and the released date were added to the sleeve when the sleeve was duplicated.  There is no print on the other side.
Some promotional copies on Sony came with white label which looks like a test press sometimes.  However, this copy on Toshiba is truly test press because another white label promotional copy does exist.  I am also showing both A and B labels below.

The matrix number of each copy is same, however, the stamper number is different.  The stamper number "1" is used for the Test Press Copy, and a latter number is used for W/L Promo Copy.  I recommend this amazing set strongly to the serious BOWIE COLLECTORS!

ITEM CONDITION (I ALWAYS GRADE MY RECORDS VERY, VERY STRICTLY!)

SLEEVE -

The colored sleeve has minimal wears only - Ex+.

The Xerox insert sleeve has sticker stains on left and right sides (please find the picture).  However, there is no serious damage.

DISC -

Also, all sides and edges of the sleeve are completely shown below and you could check the condition.  The copy you are bidding on is it!  Please find the pictures.
