I don't have one anymore, I used it for trap shooting this weekend.

Code: Select all

When the NME released single , as a give away ,they pressed 24,000 copies of it on red opaque vinyl.
It has since been hailed as the largest ever run of any White Stripes single.

The first 38 copies of this single (Rag & Bone) were pressed on a red translucent vinyl. 
The etching on the B-side was unclear enough so the rest pressing was changed to opaque vinyl.
So the first 38 were considered a cancelled test pressing of the single , thus never released and were thought to have been destroyed by
XL Records .

At 38 copies this is rarer just about anthing else on the market and is the first one to see the light of day !
still got about 10 of these still sealed at home, so might have a cheeky peak tonight

So which is the correct packaging... The double sleeve with the horse on it OR the black plastic bag?

Yep, I just opened one last night! Now it's stored in the gatefold.
