IF YOU BUY A "BRACKETS LABEL" THEN YOU WILL BE THE PROUD OWNER OF A 2ND PRESSING.The Second Major label design is commonly known as "the oval label" for the oval logo ....It is black with silver printing, with "VEE JAY" above the center hole in white with a red oval around it. Around the perimeter of the label is a "rainbow" band of green fading to yellow fading to orange fading to blue and back to green. The "oval label" was used to VJLP/SR-1070.
THE THIRD Major Vee-Jay label design is commonly called "the brackets label" because the logo appears to be enclosed in brackets. The "brackets label" came in after Ewart Abner left the company and Randy Wood took over as president. It was black with silver printing. "VJ" above the center hole in white with a white bracket on each side, under the "VJ" is "VEE-JAY RECORDS" in white on two lines. Around the perimeter of the label is the same multi-colored band that is on the second label. This label was used from VJLP-1071 to VJLP-1154, COMBINED SHIPPING EACH ADDITIONAL RECORD IN THE USA WILL BE $1 EXTRA. OUTSIDE OF THE USA WILL BE $5 EXTRA FOR EACH ADDITIONAL RECORD. OUTSIDE OF THE USA... IF YOU BUY 4 OR MORE RECORDS....
