Thanks for the links.
So - more questions for bgas - did any BB albums appear with the Reprise steamboat label? Does anyone have a more thorough collection of BB related stuff than you? I've definitely enjoyed the scans you've been posting. And, once again, what the hell does bgas stand for?
I'll leave it to bgas to 100% confirm it, but I'm pretty sure that from Sunflower till Holland (and the Good Vibrations Best Of The Beach Boys comp. from '75) were released with both Brother/Reprise and Reprise label.
here's a list I got from Frank Daniels: noted Beatles author/collector, University Professor and Pre-recorded Tape Scholar, plus, soon to be Beach Boys price Guide author( Hopefully soon) and really great guy! Thanx for being there for me, Frank :

I believe he told me those are the variations that should be out there for each; I don't have them all, yet, if ever; tho I buy every one I can get. If you know of others, let's
see/hear about them!!
Other Beach Boys collections as complete? There are some; some maybe more complete, tho it seems we, as collectors, don't always have the same depth in every section of our collections. I know most of these collectors, but probably not all.
You're seeing mine, because sharing pictures of most of what I have is the nice thing to do. Not everyone feels the same, or wants to take the time( and there is a lot of time involved)
Nothing we can do about that, I guess. But COME ON!!! You know who you are, cough up some pics/info...
