#13: Old School Colored Vinyl Heavies

Here are most of the old school coveted color vinyl pieces. Back in the day it was unusual to see colored vinyl except for three labels who did it regularly. Fantasy, Stinson and World Pacific usually pressed the initial run of each of their releases on colored wax. For these labels I only showed a few representative pieces per genre, but there's many more out there. Thanks to my collector friends for loaning some of these albums for photographing.
