It was back in February that I
reported on a very rare Mexican 7” single for Ennio Morricone’s The Good, the
Bad and the Ugly EP. The single (in auction) finally ended up selling for £348.28.
Just recently I also noticed another 7” promo single from Mexico (A Fistful of
Dollars), another that I had never seen before. The bidding finally ended
yesterday (after 42 bids) and another staggering final price of £286.90!
It seems that there is no limit
when it comes to Morricone’s rare Dollar pressings. That iconic imagery of
Eastwood as the man with no name continues to draw serious interest. I suggest
our Mexican readership should be checking out their lofts and basements– pronto!
On the negative side, there have
also been a small number of reports that there are some fake singles seeping
out of Mexico, especially on James Bond related singles, complete with colour
photo copied sleeves and labels. With all such purchases, always try to be
vigilant and take as many precautions as possible in researching the product.
