Collectable Top of the Pops

Over the last couple of weeks we've spotted some of the rarest Top of the Pops LPs appearing on Ebay. Volume 90 went for a respectable, though not sensational £12, while two copies of the "holy grail" volume 91 fetched £54 and £12 respectively.

This though, is just the tip of the iceberg. The LPs have twice featured in Record Collector mag, which expressed surprise at the high prices some of these records achieve. The report below about another copy of volume 91 is understandable - we've seen copies break the £100 mark on more than one occasion, but the other report, from earlier this year, mentions a sale price of £92 for an unidentified edition. There's also a copy of volume 25 pictured... which went for the sum of... 1p!
