So, i was looking for something the other day and i came across a cardboard box with half a dozen unplayed, completely untouched copies of our first ep, with hand stamped brown paper bag sleeves. i have NEVER sen one of these for sale anywhere! So, I'm going to give you collectors a treat and put a couple up on ebay in the next couple of days. Just wanted to give you guys a heads up! These are totally mint condition, the sellotape is a bit yellowed but they have been sat in their box for the last 28 years, like some time capsule. if you are a PWEI completist this is your only chance to acquire one of these rarest of items! Will provide a letter of authentication etc.if required. Happy Bidding! Cheers, Richard

Wow sounds great. If you email the pictures to me at
jason@pweination.com then I can stick them somewhere and link here. There's a small file size limit on the forum.

I will pay whatever I need to in order to secure one of these, it's the one thing I thought I'd never get my hands on! That and Wild and Wandering. Don't spose anyone's got a spare copy of that they're willing to part with?
Rich, you are awesome beyond words!

Great news..looks like some readers are in for a treat when these go up. I have a copy but these are unplayed! Will have a think about it.
What else have you got stashed away Richard?

I bought one from the record store in the mews arcade near New Street train station (forgot it's name now though) in Birmingham in the early 90's. It got nicked with a bunch of other stuff in the mid 90's. Might have to try & replace it finally...
