I am a bit confused on how many LP versions of this one are in existance.
Some have Art Prints and some not
Some come with green-ish sticker and some with brown-ish
Can someone make clear the differences on all LP versions please?

The US version has the art cards, the UK version has the same images but on either side of a card sleeve for each record. I'm not sure what you mean about stickers though.

I think I remember seeing 2 different sizes of stickers on the shrinkwrap with album title details and such. Is that what you mean?

managed to find some info I had stored on an excel file
There were 2 US version stickers
One green and one brown
No other differences
So everything is OK
The US version that has the prints included, where does it store the vinyls?
In simple white sleeves or something?
So I guess the US version looks better in terms of collecting a cool item?

Yes, the US version has poly-lined white sleeves for each LP. Just like Icky Thump actually. The cards that come with the US version are pretty cool, but can be a pain in the ass falling out of that triple gatefold all the time. Beautiful package though all in all.

Just two I believe: XL and Warner. There was no Saboteurs.

My theory has always been that they did the album design without the band name on the cover(band name only appears on the sticker) so that they didn't have to do a Saboteurs version.

So something was just brought to my attention via Instagram.
Has anyone ever seen the hanging man on the back of the album?

I hear he hung himself while on the set of Wizard Of Oz.

I hear they just move the body around, from shot to shot.

He was in the film "Teen Wolf" as well...
But in a much less glamorous role.
