HI TO ALL JACK WHITE FANS, IN THIS AUCTION I AM SELLING MY SUPER RARE THIRD MAN RECORDS 3RD ANNIVERSARY BLUE VINYL
COMPILATION LP. IT IS NEW NEVER PLAYED AND PLAYS AT 3 RPM WHICH IS PRETTY MUCH IMPOSSIBLE BUT YOU CAN FUN HAVE
FUN TRYING BUT I WOULDN'T RECOMMEND IT WAS MEANT TO BE MORE A COLLECTIBLE AND FIRST OF ITS KIND IT WAS MADE LIKE
THIS ON PURPOSE AND AN AMAZING EDITION TO ANYONES JACK WHITE COLLECTION. THE BUMPER STICKERS THAT CAME WITH THE
LP ARE ALSO INCLUDED. THESE LPS WERE ONLY GIVEN OUT TO THOSE THAT ATTENTED THE 3RD ANNIVERSARY PARTY AND WERE
NOT SOLD TO THE PUBLIC. I ACCEPT PAYPAL AND ONLY SHIP TO THE STATES. THANKS FOR LOOKING. MORE INFO ON THIS BLUE
VINYL IS LISTED BELOW AND THE ONLY ONE THAT I KNOW OF ON EBAY AT THIS MOMENT, THEY SUPER RARE.

The world's first 3 RPM record is a study in contradictions--it's cut at the slowest speed yet it plays faster than anything you've ever heard. It's a compilation of 7 inch records but it's packaged like a 12 inch. But the 12 inch sleeve is made like our 7 inch sleeve (as it is one continues piece of paper folded in half and put into an acetate sleeve). A bit like a snake eating its own tail. It comes with three bumper stickers yet there is no bumper. We gave it away for free yet given what it has fetched on eBay it is proving to be fairly valuable. It's easy to play but impossible to hear. You put your finger on it to slow it down, but this is no easy task (as evidenced by these youtube videos) and we estimate it would take 333 days of 33 hours training per day for your finger, hand, and arm muscles to spin at a continuous speed of 3rpm for X hours and X minutes. Also, you can visit all the little cutouts as they now live in the Third Man store, as does Melissa the "Human Model".
