Two hundred dollars for a magazine? That's plain daft.

Yes the secret is to mention the VU in the headline. I bought an old copy years ago of a Village Voice with a VU Nico ad, for $5.00, but the VU wasn't mentioned in the eBay ad. Now all it takes is to mention the VU and price goes up sky-hi!

Would anyone be interested in selling their copy of Everything You've Ever Heard...?

Wow,the 'light shows & curious movies' legend next to the pop image poster and concept... really love it.

I would say that poster has cross appeal and would be of interest to Warhol collectors as well - hence the high price

But most amazing. There is (not offered in the auction) a never seen before VU Poster from The Tea Party July 11 1969 (last performante at the original location)!!!

Hasn't that poster been seen before? It looks familiar to me for some reason. BTW, a closet mix lp just sold for $327USD, and 2 UK 3rd lp's (CS 8108) sold; one for $142.00 and the other for $433.10! Why did one go for so much higher? Quality seemed almost the same on both? You can never tell; I have seen some bootleg lp's sell for next to nothing and a week later another copy sell for hundreds. Here is the description for the one that sold for $433;
Matrix No. 1G & 1G

This is a mega RARE original record.

Only 300 were made and this is one of those ORIGINAL 300.

Back Cover photo shows that this is the ORIGINAL piece.

Record is in V Good condition.

Cover is also in V Good condition.

Plays superb without interference. Dynamics are superb

Is that correct, this flipback only had 300 copies? That is rare.

BTP Poster: At least for me this is the very fisrt time I see it. It is not at Olivier´s and I have not seen it reprinted anywhere.

UK 3rd: This is from Olivier´s "UK original pressing. Estimates of the number of copies pressed are around the 600 mark (250 to 300 with the 1-G matrix and then 250-300 with the 1-R matrix numbers)" From top of muy head was Gordon who was told of this from a record dealer. Next letter was "R". I´m pretty sure he has explained this here bofore.
