About this record
Bovema-EMI pressed this 1970 Netherlands compilation in Haarlem, and the dead-wax matrix reveals a manufacturing quirk: the catalogue number on the spine (5C046.25328) does not match the centre labels (5C 046-24328), a discrepancy that marks authentic copies of this Imperial pressing. The runout etchings 5C 046.24328-A//HN.14745-Z-X and 5C 046.24328-B//HV.14746-I-X (with only the stamped 'C1 I I' portion not hand-etched) confirm the Haarlem plant origin and distinguish it from later reissues or variant pressings.
What drives its value
This nine-track jazz-rock-pop-folk compilation trades on its scarcity relative to demand: 52 collectors want it against 143 who own one, a ratio that keeps prices modest but stable. The price guide spans from 1.5 USD (floor) to 34.36 USD in Mint condition, with a VG+ copy estimated at 23.51 USD and VG at 16.28 USD.
Twenty-two copies are currently for sale, suggesting intermittent availability rather than glut. The original Dutch Imperial pressing from Bovema-EMI holds value primarily as a regional artifact; reissues or different pressings would command less.
Condition drives the spread—a Mint copy is worth roughly double a VG example—so grading accuracy is essential for fair pricing in this mid-range segment.
How to appraise this pressing
Confirm this pressing by checking the centre labels for the catalogue number 5C 046-24328 (note the space after the dash, distinguishing it from the spine marking 5C046.25328). The rear cover must state 'Manufactured by Bovema-E.M.I., Haarlem, Holland' and credit 'An Habo Sleeve'.
Examine the dead wax on both sides: Side A should read '5C 046-24328-A//HN.14745-Z-X C1 I I' and Side B '5C 046-24328-B//HV.14746-I-X C1 I I'. The etched portions (everything except 'C1 I I') confirm Haarlem pressing.
The record is stereo, 9 tracks, and carries no barcode. Grade by vinyl surface cleanliness, cover wear, and any warping; the narrow price floor (1.5 USD) means even poor copies retain minimal value, so focus on whether the pressing plant marks and catalogue discrepancy are legible and intact.

Frequently asked
Why does the catalogue number differ between the spine and the centre labels?
This is a documented manufacturing feature of the Bovema-EMI pressing, not a pressing error or counterfeit marker. The spine reads 5C046.25328 while the centre labels read 5C 046-24328 (note the space after the dash). Both are correct for this 1970 Haarlem pressing; the discrepancy is part of the original design and helps authenticate the record.
What is a VG+ copy worth, and how does it compare to Mint?
A VG+ copy is estimated at 23.51 USD, while a Mint copy reaches 34.36 USD according to the price guide. The gap reflects the rarity of truly Mint Dutch pressings from 1970; most copies in the market show at least light wear. These are estimates as of the guide's last update and may vary with actual sales.
How can I verify the dead-wax matrix to confirm authenticity?
Check both sides of the vinyl in the runout (dead wax). Side A must show '5C 046-24328-A//HN.14745-Z-X C1 I I' and Side B must show '5C 046-24328-B//HV.14746-I-X C1 I I'. The release notes confirm that everything except the stamped 'C1 I I' portion is etched, so the matrix should appear hand-inscribed except for those final initials. This is the Haarlem plant signature.
How many copies are typically available for sale?
Currently 22 copies are listed for sale across the market. This modest inventory suggests the record is not rare but not common either, so patience in waiting for a well-graded example is often rewarded without extreme delays.
What does the community rating tell me about this record's appeal?
The community rating is 3.83 out of 5 based on 6 ratings, indicating moderate appreciation. With 143 collectors owning it and 52 wanting it, the record has a modest but genuine following, likely driven by its regional Dutch origin and genre mix (jazz, rock, pop, folk) rather than by a standout artist or track.
