NEW OLD STOCK. I have some copies left of the 1987 pressing of Mesmerized. These LPs were stored tightly for over 30 years, most without shrinkwrap. 4 are in shrinkwrap. They are new old stock and might have some warpage. They moved around the country with me a lot, there is some wear on the cover as you can see (these are 2 different LPs). On all of them, the top left, and top spine, has fading where it turned a bluish color. And some have more damage than others. I will send the best ones first, based on the order in which you pledged. Keep all of those issues in mind.
CMYK Pre-press proof for the 1990ish CD cover and traycard.
CMYK Pre-press proof for the 1990ish CD cover and traycard. Clearly, the printer messed up making this film, as the background texture Blue!
Black and Brown Pre-press proof of the 1990ish cassette. Absent is the overlay for the gold text.
Sam will select which item you get. There is more than what is shown here. Just a sampling of what’s available.
Original production board or proof or extra bit from the 1992 CD/cassette run. Backers will get to select which piece they want, first Producer gets to select first, etc etc.
