Description

The Holy Grail of Beltones record nerd whatnot. Two different versions of the Cheap Trinkets test pressing exist, there were 5 of each made. The first has catalog info or some such nonsense scribbled on the labels in sharpie. Those were found to have a very slight defect in the last track on side one, which necessitated the production of this bad boy, which became the record you all pay tons of money for now. This is back when test pressings were made to make sure they sounded alright. Nowadays, they crank out 50 to sell to über-collectors. See my other auctions for a couple of those.
