Assistance required. I have a 12" copy of Shakespear's Sister. It is a faint lilac/purple colour and is high gloss.
It is catalogued as RTT 181 and has the same B-sides as the final 12" single and contains the run out groove "Home is Where the Art Is".
On the front cover it has small text to the bottom middle - Rough Trade/Address/Catalogue Number.
On the back of the 12" sleeve there are 9 'thumbnails' of the following releases:
Hand in Glove
This Charming Man
What Difference Does It Make
Heaven Knows I'm Miserable Now
William It Was Really Nothing
How Soon is Now
The Smiths
Hatful of Hollow
Meat is Murder
Is this a common proof sleeve or is it rare? It has been in my possession since I bought it as the 12" single - most likely on the day of release - those were the days. Any information will be most welcome. Thanks.
