The earliest version of a known TMOQ John Birch came out in the first
part of 1971 (gwa13-C), although there were obvious ties to the original
pieces. The first TMQ cover utilized the same rubber-stamp to be
found on gwa13-Ab. Some 2nd versions also had
a small round or square original pig logo sticker on the front cover.
The covers were white, orange, or other various pastel colors. There
was an insert included in the album with a lot of small photos from 1963
and 1965, and the original pig logo. The album labels were either blank
white, or the pig logo. The matrix number is BD 509 A/B.©

Later in 1971, as the new TMOQ Label was beginning to come into its
own; the familiar "TMOQ style" rubber-stamp title began appearing on the
covers. The Label was using whatever supplies and tools that became
available to it, and this accounts for the wide array of packages.
There are near endless combinations of colors of covers, colors of inserts,
stamps, stickers, labels, and colors of vinyl. As many of these packages
were released simultaneously, it would be an impossible task to actually
chronicle the order in which various packages were issued.

In 1973 TMOQ created a cartoon cover with
a die-cut center hole, and issued 18 or so of their titles as collector's
items in this numbered volumes series. The albums had a unique additional
reference number that generally matched the 'Issue volume number' for that
LP.

With the John Birch album, the volume number was 3. The reference
number was S-103. The original matrix number was still stamped; and,
like its predecessor, this cartoon series album came out in various packages
including black or colored vinyl, and new full printed, blank, or original
labels.

As the new TMOQ regime took over, it slowly started introducing changes
to the albums and their packaging, while simultaneously selling off their
remaining original products. This makes for an even wider variety
of available packages. A true TMOQ-2 issue of this LP can be identified
primarily from the matrix number. The original BD-509 A/B has been
scratched out, and the new matrix number 1803 appears. The following
changes and/or additions probably occurred more or less in the order they
are listed here. Definitely the first thing to happen was the matrix
change. After this came black and new colors of vinyl ... a new smoking
pig logo on the insert ... a new smoking pig logo label and, finally a
new 'live in 1974' insert. See Re-issue info at left for more.
