I found a lot more than these, but I only posted the ones that I found the most interesting.

 

The full list is here. Sorry if it stretches the margin: http://eil.com/fulltext/search.asp?searcht...=RUS&prodtype=1

 

 

Here's a UK Tom Sawyer single from Exit... Stage Left:

Here's a Canadian cassette single for "The Pass" which has Presto as a b-side:

US Promo CD Single for Show Don't Tell:

Us Promo picture CD Single for Test For Echo. It's got that really cool picture with the wolf:

This one has b-sides and the record is red! UK 10" vinyl single for "The Body Electric":

I'm really surprised to find "Countdown" as a single, but this appears to be commercial and not a promo as it has B-sides:

A promo CD-single for "Secret Touch" which has no art, but interestingly includes what appears to be a 4:47 (I wonder what they took out?) radio edit of the song:

Spanish 7" vinyl single for "The Spirit Of Radio," which, while it's not listed on the art, apparently includes "Different Strings" as a b-side:

"One Little Victory" CD-single which has art featuring the Knight Of Wands card, but has no b-side:

"Resist" promo CD-single, featuring the live acoustic version from Rush In Rio:

A CD "Strictly Limited Edition Single" of Prime Mover, featuring the juggler as the art. The B-sides aren't listed on the cover, but the site I found it on lists them as Tai Shan, Distant Early Warning (Live), and New World Man (Live). It's also interesting, because, being so limited, the individual copies are numbered:

CD-single for "Nobody's Hero" with unique artwork. It apparently contains the "Master Edit" version of the song (and nothing else) which has a length of 4:29 instead of the album version's 4:55:

12" promotional vinyl Exit... Stage Left single of "A Passage To Bangkok" with "Freewill" as the B-side. It has black-and-white artwork of Geddy I've never seen before:

12" vinyl picture disc single of "Time Stand Still" with the juggler as the picture. The B-sides, according to the site I found it on, are "Force Ten" and "The Enemy Within":

This has got to be the most interesting one I've found. This is a "Subdivisions" 12" vinyl single, with really cool artwork I've never seen before. According to the site I found it on, the B-sides are Red Barchetta and Jacob's Ladder. Also, it was released in 1981, so it came out before the Signals album:

I'm just posting pictures. Most of them were ridiculously expensive.

Sorry if I implied that I bought them. sad.gif

No problem, it's nice to see whats out there. I try not to pass a used record store without stopping, you never know what you will find. My last find at a used record store was a 2112 perfect German pressing for a buck and a single of 'The Trees'. I walked out of the store for under $3.00. Sometimes at used record stores, it's the taste of the owner knowing what he/she really has in the bins. Sometimes it pays off to look around a little. You're better off to look around first, rather than let them know what you would spend your money on if you could find it. wink.gif

 

I already own a single of New World Man w/ Vital Signs (Live) on the b-side and a single of Ged singing 'Take-Off' and just about everything on vinyl up to Signals.

Promo sampler for "Different Stages" which has a few of the same live versions as the album (I won't list them here, but it has some from each disc):

"Closer To The Heart" single from A Show Of Hands, with (according to the site) "Witch Hunt" as a b-side:

Oh God, I want that Zippo.  ohmy.gif

I was just in Bradford, PA (where Zippo's are made) about a month ago. I didn't even know these existed or I would have stopped in at the Zippo showroom/museum there to see if they had any there for sale or at least to see if they had one on display. I can't remember when I didn't use a Zippo lighter.

That site is good, but they can be really expensive - I scored a tourbook from HYF for a good price, but some of their prices are ridiculous.

 

Still, it's a good site for seeing what's out there. A friend checks it for Def Leppard stuff, then hits eBay once she has a list.

Don't have the zippo, but it looks like I have everything else listed in that thread.

 

 

The pricing on that website referenced is insane Nice inventory, but I guess there's a reason it's still inventory.
