Test Pressing ('Echantillon' is French for 'sample') of the projected 1983 issue of Cherry 59 with an unused b side (the released version had 'A Preacher in New England'). Some time ago I found details of this rare TP on the 'net written by Felt expert Lee McFadden. Frustratingly, a recent search has failed to reveal more. I was a huge fan of FELT myself and was on the Cherry Red mailing list as I was contributing to Bucketfull of Brains magazine, who were great supporters of both band and label. If you can contact Lee I'm sure he'll explain further.
There's a copy of Felt's debut 45 'Index' sitting in the archive here too... it might eventually find it's way onto Ebay.
I will shortly be listing a stack of rare UK and US punk, new-wave, post-punk and psych 45s, fanzines and flyers all from my own collection.
