I recently gathered proof of a detail that fetched my attention when surfing the web. I had this very dark purple and almost black version of Take Offense full length on Reaper Records. But then while checking rambeaupunk’s auctions, I saw a light purple or almost fuchsia coloured record, that’s mentioned as the same colour out of 700 by Reaper Records, as well when they sold it and as well on their discography.
Look at both records to see that there is a difference. The difference is huge in my eyes:
So we can conclude that this version’s pressing process was unstable…

These all seem to be different. My copy is a completely different colour to the two you picture
One of those near impossible to accurately document pressings! But probably all in the broad purple range I guess. I'd love to see your color…
Ah thanks Mario you've saved me a job, mines the same colour as yours, maybe VERY slightly lighter but that could just be the light
yours looks even lighter Mario, almost lavender. But I won't do like Dobek and buy 5 of these…
I will update the Reaper discography page to mention that there is a great deal of color variation in this press.
