Jack White / The Dead Weather - SUPER RARE TEST PRESSING 45 GIVEAWAY /  HAND MADE COVER w/ PHOTO BOOTH STRIP and INVITE - only 1 of these auctioned in the last year- value keeps going up, ACT NOW -  NEVER SOLD IN STORES!! 
If you are looking at this then you probably know what it is... the launch of Third Man Records, TMR - 001 A/B, 7" two song 45, Only 150 made and only given away at the Party / Show of The Dead Weather to launch the now legendary Third Man Records. 
 Each band member created and painted a hand made cover... this one by Alison (signed Baby Ruthless).  Possibly the rarest of all Jack White records!!!!!
Hang You From The Heavens b/w Are Friends Electric
dead wax etching of course Giant Eagles...Tiny Elephants on one side and Walking All Over Creation on the other
On the back of the yellow invite are two stamps, one a 45rpm adaptor the other a black Third Man Records logo and the words Cell Ok and my name listed. I think the stamps indicated All Access but I am not sure... I was at the party and this is my copy that is now ready to find a new home with 100% of the proceeds going to a wonderful Non Profit, Camp Tawonga in Yosemite.  I will ship with insurance and very carefully. Watch for more up coming collector items!!!!

If you're looking at this, you probably know what it is. But details: 

This is a copy of Third Man Records' first release, the 7-inch single Test Pressing of The Dead Weather's "Hang You From The Heavens," b/w "Are Friends Electric?" TMR-001. It was never sold, only given to those in attendance at the Third Man Records grand opening/first Dead Weather performance.

There were 150 Test Pressings made, all with art that was handmade by the band members. This one seems to have been done by Jack White (judging by the III at the top of one side of the art, shown in the pictures here).

Each 7-inch was hand-etched on each side: On one side, TMR-001-A "GIANT EAGLES...TINY ELEPHANTS," and on the other side, TMR-001-B "WALKING ALL OVER CREATION." My understanding is that Jack White did the etching.

These all came with a unique photo strip of the band, and that's included (and pictured) here. The record has not been played, and it'll be in the white paper sleeve that it originally came in as well.
