:lol: ... great picture, paul ... ;D :notworthy: :notworthy: ... House Of Reptiles under construction ... ;D :wink: ...
"the original pressing of Reptile House that was stricly limited to 50 copies (but less distribuited) was released by Palazzo boys Very Happy
using 5o remains copies of side A of Black pack 2lp with yellow label and most important using 50 sleeves with red stamp on back "limited edition of 100 copies" (as usa ltd 100 reissue) that was hidden by the glued insert of reptile (you can still see it with a 100 w lamp).
This is one the only legitim copy of it.

Later a reissue was done by someonelse using normal white card sleeve and numbered yellow vinyl lp (quantites unknow) without the red stamp.

And another totally fake done by a private seller using the blue eyed label of black pack 2lp with poor inserts
this the true story"
Was this you, taylor ?
And if so, how comes the Black Pack has no Palazzo catalogue# ?
What's the relation between them and KTFB Records/Observation Records ?
Also - yellow label Black Pack = re-issue limited 100 ?
Reissue House of Reptiles yellow vinyl or yellow labels in white card sleeve without or with xerox ?

Ah yes, I understand - eventually - that bootleggers in the 1980ies bootlegged each other without much reserve ... :lol: ... * which somewhat slightly changes my view of our Greek friend (and others) ... :innocent:

I've got a picture of the yellow label edition. Shall include that and the info about the re-issue in the Black Pack page ... soon ...

Thanks ... :D :notworthy: ....

in this case for the house of reptile lp were used some proper copies originally pressed for the black pack 2lp reissue,
maybe some extra surplus copies .

For example the red sleeves gatefold silence is platinum limited for the convention. There were only ever 1000 discs made, the 40 for the convention came from the fact that some of the boxes were damaged and were too expensive to remake :D

:D ... ok. I'm revising the text of the page

What makes me wonder, though, is the print on the front of the black boxes. White? Silver? Golden?

Hard to detect from the small pictures I've got... :wink: ...

Or are the white ones re-issues / fakes?... :eek: ...

I will have to do some PhotoShop on them, but it's cool that one can even see the red stamp shine through the xerox ... ;D ... THANKS ... :notworthy: ...

Well, I tried. But especially the one of the disc is just too unsharp.

However, there is a page for House Of Reptiles now ... not yet ready, though ... :wink: ...

And I've revised the Silence Is Platinum page ...

Btw, this looks like a nice copy - In The Dark Night (b/w cover version) ... not exactly cheap, but still ...


Also nice - Live Heidelberg 1990

True, but the insert is there and the price is accordingly low ...
