A few short years ago I decided to start collecting colour vinyl Black Flag 7"s. This was pretty much when I had completed (as far as possible) a collection of colour vinyl Black Flag LPs. I figured this 7" journey would take a while, which isn't a problem as I learnt to have patience years ago. So I sat back and started slowly scooping them up, one by one. Anyway, I thought I was getting pretty close to a complete colour 7" collection when I realised that there were two different red vinyl copies of 'Nervous Breakdown'. And finally I've managed to track down the one I was missing.
So what's the difference between this new one and the one I already had? Well, rather than explain, I thought we could play a game of 'spot the difference'. First up, the front (new record at the top):
And secondly, the back (again, new record at the top):
I had the exact same issue with two red vinyl copies of the 'Louie Louie' 7" - one with large hole, and one with small hole. You'll have to trust me on this, but it's an odd moment when you realise that you've crossed a line between collecting records and collecting different sized holes.

I have the large hole red one. I thought they were all like that!
there are going to be a dozen record collects reading this and getting really annoyed. ...because they too will have to find the other one now.
Family picture?
I'll second Nico's motion!
i will third the notion. family photos are the best as long its not actually your real family. i only care about records.
Thanks guys. I've been trying to avoid a family photo until I'd managed to collect the whole set. I'm pretty sure there's only one more 7" I need to be in that position, although it seems uber rare so it could take a while.
Which one?

None of those. I'm collecting only colour vinyl Black Flag 7"s. In that pic are 4 colours of the 'Nervous Breakdown' 7"s and I have all of them. The one colour Black Flag 7" I am missing is a clear blue 'Six Pack' 7".
