Rare Thai EPs: I am selling my collection of Thai Extended Player 7" 45s. These were generally released in Thailand in the 1970s. Western record companies had no interest in Thailand at that time as very few Thai people owned personal record players (only the wealthy), and also due to the fairly relaxed view on copyright law in Thailand at the time. Thai record companies released these 45s as extended players mainly for jukebox play. They all have the large centre jukebox holes. Sleeves tend to be fairly flimsy and usually, but not always, the record also has its own plastic liner - normally round bottomed poly sleeve. 

The content is normally 4 songs (sometimes less if some of the tracks are long). These can all be from one artist, or 4 different artists (usually with no relationship at all between the tracks) making for some pretty eclectic records! They are all scarce (even in Thailand) as they were never produced in large quantities in the first place, being aimed at the jukebox market in cafes and bars, and many have not survived. These EPs tend to be collected for their scarcity rather than their sound quality. The covers can be a bit bizarre and can even feature artists not on the record.

I will be listing around 40 of these and there's no way I have time to listen to each one and grade the audio quality, but I will make comments on the visual condition of each disc.

Hope somebody else can enjoy them now...

IMPORTANT POSTAGE NOTES:

All items will be sent via tracked (and often signed) post. Overseas items will be sent by Royal Mail tracked and signed services. This provides greater security for both of us and they receive priority handling. Please do not ask for lower cost services without tracking/signature or by surface mail as I do not do this.

Outside EU, including USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, China and Japan: £20.00.

If you have any additional queries on postage please ask prior to bidding.

I will be happy to combine postage costs. If you are bidding on additional items and waiting for the outcome just let me know.

Many thanks.

A note on my collection: when I acquire a record they are always well looked after - stored vertically on a sturdy shelf, discs of any value are removed from picture sleeves and stored separately in a plain sleeve and then in a protective plastic outer. Smoke free home.
