Description
I would think that this would be a fairly rare record, which was bought by my husband when he was on R&R leave in Taiwan in 1968, during his tour of duty in Vietnam. It is probably a very early example of record pirating and unlike the present examples, there was no real effort made to replicate the appearance of the original. The records he bought are all American, so they were no doubt produced to sell to the US troops who flooded into the area during the war. The cover of the record is made of a thin cardboard, which is wrapped inside and out with an equally thin loose plastic. There are a couple of minor holes in the plastic and some age marks on the cardboard. The vinyl is orange and there are a few superficial scratches on the surface, but nothing which would interfere with playing. I haven't played the record but I wouldn't think that the sound quality would be as good as the original.
