This new page lists mono Various Artist compilation LPs that contain one or more Bob Dylan mono album tracks. There are not many from the 1970s and 1972 is the latest date for an entry on this page so far. These albums do not contain rarities or obscurities and are not eligible for the Searching For A Gem list. Nevertheless, the interest value or scarcity of these items means they're worth listing here - as far as I know some are not included on any other Internet site. Mono singles up to 1976 have their own pages, see the links above. For 1960s mono Various Artist Compilations with a Dylan track, see here.
If you have any entries to add to the list or additions/corrections to existing entries, please let me know! Please note I cannot value your Dylan rarities - see the Mission page for reasons why. Contact the dealers on my Trading page for assistance!

The box includes a 24-page booklet with photos and information in Czech about the artists. The front of the booklet includes the tracklist with composers and recording dates: Girl From The North Country is listed as "s B. Dylanem; 17. unóra 1969 - Nashville [with B. Dylan; 17 of February, 1969 - Nashville]". The rear of the booklet includes discographies of the artists, amazingly listed in alphabetical order: Nashville Skyline is wrongly listed as a Johnny Cash and Bob Dylan album! The record labels are dark blue with the same design as those of the Record Club edition of Songy Boba Dylana (1968, see Mono Dylan-Only Compilation Albums 1960s).
There was also a stereo release with the same catalogue number, CBS/Supraphon 013 0841/42, see International Compilations: Various Artist Albums 1970-79. The box and booklet were exactly the same.
