I’m missing the book and original Inner if anyone has these available… msg me , plz n Ty 🙏 -
The copy I have is a bit weird. It's the limited edition with booklet, Similar to variant 2, but no Allied stamp or B numbers on Side A, only on Side B. Inner sleeve is black poly sleeve which isn't mentioned.
-
Mine has a red sticker on the wrapper that says "Special Limited Edition Package Includes 20-Page Booklet Featuring Photos and Drawings by David Byrne from Stage Production Storyboards" in black and I-25121 in white below.
-
Worth it for the extended booklet alone. Must have for any hardcore fans. If you're lucky you might get one with a piece of the film strip in the jacket! -
does anyone know about a version of this that came with a bonus film strip of scenes from the movie? my copy has this, but i can't find any reference to this.
