This title was used for many different albums. TMOQ and Berkeley, among
others, have released a wide variety of forms of this LP; all based on
the original GWW Sings the John Birch Society Blues.

After the GWW version, the first John Birch Society was released in
1970 by an unknown Label. The matrix was 417 A/B. Oddly enough, on
the B side of the album was another matrix 111 with an 'A'
& 'B' superimposed on each other. This first issue
then, was pressed from the same master plates as the original GWW.
The album was black vinyl with blank white labels. The covers were
white (or, rarely, a light pastel) with various forms of rubber-stamp names
on the front. The first version had a red title stamp with no box
around it (gwa13-Aa). Some also have a round,
day-glow TMQ logo sticker in the upper left corner. Musicben
has provided us with a copy of this version where the manufacturer went
a little crazy with the stickers. View it here.
The unique thing about this copy is that it allows documentation and comparison
of the four original color stamps that were available. The next issue,
also in 1970 had a red , green or blue title stamp with a box around it
(gwa13-Ab). This is the version shown in the above photograph.

Another version of this early LP appeared in Sweden at the same time.
(gwa13-B). This European version came in a slick white cover with
the title printed in black with quotations. It had a small "Syb Trick
Tumba" logo on the back.
