THIS TOPIC IS STILL SUBJECT TO RESEARCH

Have you already heard this ep ? Sounds awesome to say at least. Looks awesome as well. This record is meant to stay and to be heard also. I only wish I had the test press. Which could have been the case if I had more money or focused on Reaper Records only. But I like the mix…

Also Patrick Kitzel, to whom I have to thank all of this greatness, puts test presses on eBay regularly so I know that they are out there somewhere for in the future. Can only hope peeps who buy them take care of them…

Anyway here’s the collection:

Those two different colors are from the first press:

turnstile pressure to succeed pre order clear vinyl 7 inch reaper records
Pre-order version that sold out pretty quickly. With different cover and an exclusive colour, clear vinyl.
turnstile pressure to succeed blue vinyl first press 7 inch reaper records
Already sold out regular first pressing: blue vinyl out of 830 copies

After these were sold out; came another version thanks to popular demand all on black vinyl! The black vinyl is from the same pressing as the two other colours. the label intended to do something special with it. But in the end decided to sell most copies with left over covers from the blue version.

Some copies though got a special cover later on. These were sold from the web store online.

approximately 168 copies on black with blue sleeve

This may seem awkward but the label ran out of glue-pocket sleeves and printed fold-out sleeves:

Fold-out sleeve left versus glue-pocket sleeve right

green alternate sleeve with black vinyl out of 132 copies only

Anyway, that green version is still available here, although there are very few left!
