    And another of my most prized. I'm being lazy as these are screen captures from my Instagram page, hence the collages on some:

    I do not accuse you of lying, I am truly sorry if you thought so. Misinformed? I'm not sure. Probably more uneducated on my part.
    That is a disc I would welcome/treasure in my collection for sure!!!
    But as I stated in my OP, promo lingo on the label, test pressings, promo unique covers. Unless you can produce links, I must call it an item of interest...as far as this thread goes.

    If we don't limit to LPs, here are a couple more-

    This is a 12" 3 song advance release promo of Pat Travers live album "Go For What You Know"

    As mentioned earlier in this thread, vinyl record promo label copies from outside of the United States are unusual. Parlophone was known to stamp the labels of their promo records. Here's a New Zealand pressing of the Beatles Hey Jude! with what I believe are authentic promotional stamps:

    This one is my most recent purchase of a promo-

    Steely Dan "Time Out Of Mind". Great song from the Gaucho album.

    SRTS and HOTH never had WLPs to my knowledge (except I think there may be a MONO HOTH WLP). The stereos are promo covers only.

    I have a couple of these with timing strips on the front, but notice yours doesn't. Any idea why?

    No, the ones that haunt you the most are the ones you owned but sold cheap many years ago, before they were worth hundreds of dollars a piece.

    If I may....timing strips were not always pre-applied. Sometimes left loose in the package to be applied by the user. I have some like that. Although not promo labels, IIRC.
    But then not all promo labeled LP's have strips, so left up to the user to apply if wanted? That's my guess.
