About this record
Pressed in the Netherlands for the Stateside label in 1970, this compilation carries a STEMRA rights society marking that distinguishes it from a concurrent BIEM variant—a detail most sellers overlook. The dead-wax matrix codes 5C 054-90934 A and B, paired with pressing plants N.V.
Bovema and Habo, confirm the Dutch origin. Condition drives the entire market here: a Mint copy trades at 5.78 USD against a Poor at 0.30 USD, yet 37 copies sit for sale at 0.9 USD or less, signaling a flooded secondary market.
What drives its value
This Netherlands Stateside pressing trades on condition alone, with no rarity premium to offset wear. The price_guide spans from 5.78 USD (Mint) down to 0.30 USD (Poor)—a steep cliff that reflects the compilation's common status and the label's regional saturation.
At 0.9 USD, the lowest asking price on the market sits well below even Good+ grade (1.52 USD), indicating sellers are liquidating stock rather than holding for grading premiums. The 37 copies currently for sale outnumber the 10 collectors actively seeking one by a wide margin, confirming oversupply.
Against the 774 who own this pressing, demand is negligible. The STEMRA/BIEM label variant distinction adds no measurable value; both versions trade at identical grade-based rates.
How to appraise this pressing
Verify the Dutch pressing by checking the label for Stateside cat.# 5C 054-90934 and the STEMRA rights society imprint (not BIEM). The dead-wax runout should read either 5C 054-90934 A (side one) or 5C 054-90934 B (side two), with secondary matrix codes YRX 50574 (A-side) and YRX 50575 (B-side) present.
The sleeve will show cat.# 5C054.90934 (note the period instead of space). Credits state manufacture by N.V.
Bovema, Heemstede, Holland, with Habo credited for sleeve production. The back cover contains two documented misspellings—A4 as "The Girl I'm Gonna Mary" and B5 as "Let Me Call You Sweethaert"—which confirm the correct pressing if present.
No barcode appears on this issue. Grade by surface noise, groove wear, and label condition; even minor scuffing drops value significantly given the 0.9 USD floor.

Frequently asked
What is the STEMRA marking and why does it matter?
STEMRA is a Dutch rights society imprint that appears on the label of this pressing, distinguishing it from a concurrent variant marked BIEM (a European mechanical rights organization). The release notes confirm both versions exist as separate pressings, though they trade at identical price-guide rates regardless of the marking. Collectors often mistake one for the other; checking the label will confirm which you hold.
Why is a Mint copy worth 5.78 USD but I see them selling for 0.9 USD?
The price_guide figure of 5.78 USD represents an estimated market value for a Mint specimen based on historical sales data. The 0.9 USD lowest asking price reflects the current glut: 37 copies are for sale simultaneously, and sellers are pricing aggressively to move inventory rather than wait for a graded Mint buyer. Most copies on the market are worn; Mint examples are rare enough that the guide price persists, but actual transactions occur far lower.
What do the matrix codes in the dead wax tell me?
The runout codes 5C 054-90934 A and B (sides one and two) confirm this is the Netherlands Stateside pressing, not a reissue or alternate country variant. The secondary codes YRX 50574 and YRX 50575 are pressing plant identifiers. Together, they allow you to rule out counterfeits or misattributed copies. If your dead wax reads differently, you hold a different pressing entirely.
Should I pay more for a copy with the misspellings on the back cover?
No. The misspellings—"The Girl I'm Gonna Mary" (A4) and "Let Me Call You Sweethaert" (B5)—are documented on all copies of this pressing and carry no premium. They are a manufacturing quirk of the Dutch pressing, not a rare variant. Their presence simply confirms you have the correct issue.
Why do so few people want this record if 774 own it?
The want/have ratio of 10 to 774 reflects the compilation's low collectibility. This is a budget reissue of Fats Domino standards, not a sought-after original pressing or rare variant. Most of the 774 owners acquired it casually and have no incentive to trade or sell; the 10 wanting it are likely completists or new collectors. The glut of 37 copies for sale at bargain prices confirms it is not in demand.
