How strange... I wonder how that would happen?

		Hehe, would be pretty obvious if JC marked the 50 stolen ones as complete :)

		No worries...yeah i seriously thought about stealing about 50 items but David Copperfield I am not!!!

		Joking. I tried to pretend JC took an acetate from that "tour" but apparently I was way too subtil? :/ Anyway. Thanks as always JC for your very kind support. It was a pleasure here too, a weird new feeling like a member jumped off the screen to my side for the first time to check I'm doing my job properly! :) Thanks for your help with the cases by the way, and for bringing your deluxe TIB by EDC.

		Damn it! I'm quite sure I did put that acetate back in the case...

		I'm jealous of your tour :)

		Sounds like you had a nice vacation!! I would love to watch such a collection "live" myself someday also.

		Back to sunny London after 4 days in Barcelona...That misprinted album was a nice little find indeed, in a somewhat quiet record fair..nothing much apart from a couple of decent items..But the highlight for me was watching our Webmaster extraordinaire at work!.I did not realise before, but each and every item that makes its way on the site requires about 30 minutes work.(Scanning/uploading/photo... titles ect..) it's a real labour of love, for which i am really appreciative..Being there also means I got a "tour" of an amazing collection of records, tapes and acetates...Seeing them for real was a great pleasure.Thanks a lot for that.JC

		It could happen if the yellow was set up as a 5th Pantone color, in addition to the standard CMYK... there could be a problem with that yellow, and other yellows/oranges/greens etc would still print. But I don't know why they would pay to add a 5th color just for those tiny little areas? Interesting.

		I was with jchristophem in the record fair when he spotted the record on the wall. A different seller told us it can't be a misprint from the printing plant, but from the original design. He says that if the yellow ink had been missing, the cover wouldn't have green at all. Moreover, the front and back cover are printed at once, unfolded, and there's yellow on the back! So it's very likely a mysterious diferent design by accident. Very rare indeed. I was wondering how many copies like this would exist. Hundreds, or just a bunch? Anyone has the same sleeve?
