I hadn't seen the L.A. Woman billboard before either. Really cool !! I think it was supposed to be symbolic. Didn't it face in the opposite direction to that of the Break On Through Billboard used for the first album ?

As soon as I saw this it reminded me of a cartoon I saw years ago. I feel bad about posting this because I worship Ray ( I mean, c'mon, who doesn't; Raymond Daniel is God ) but this is just too funny.

Sorry, Ray :wink:

Since I dissed Ray in the last one I'll pay him homage and thank him for signing this. :D

Found this in one of my boxes. A songbook from 1968.

I'll try to dig up more stuff over the next few days, but I'll post one last thing for now. This is the original TV Guide for when the band appeared on American Bandstand. Imagine being able to watch original episodes of the Jetsons, Magilla Gorilla ( the greatest cartoon ever , I don't care what anyone says ) , Tom and Jerry and then , at 12:30, watch the band perform ( well, lip-synch ) their first big hit ? What a great day to be a resident of the planet. Unfortunately, at the tender age of 13 months, I couldn't tune in. :(

I have the TV Guides for all their TV appearances. Malibu U. was the last one I needed and I just found that one a few weeks ago.

Nice slide of the LAW billboard, maybe you can get a print made. There were rumors of a billboard for that album but no real proof, until this. I've seen a photo of a billboard for OV, infact it's the same billboard they used for the first album.

Recently I was looking to see if I had any saved like these.
I think these are examples of Barnard/Sugerman productions.

I`d think so too...still think they`re a nice collectible though, they don`t pop up too often either

Agreed.
Better than some shmuck marking up all over some 80's repress.

Yep. NM=Near Mint. Pretty much all of my 85+ 45's from around the world are in NM condition.

If you're not already aware of it, here's a great website by one of the members here, Blake. Nice source of info for the doors 45 collector.

I would say, It's worth is what somebody is willing to pay for it.

One person may think a particular rare doors single is worth $100 and another would gladly pay $200. So, it's worth depends.
