I already own his first release of this, he's used the early 90's art work for the sleeve this time, his first release used the original Palace Pictures artwork ..
He's deliberately made this sleeve look crappy and photocopied amateur ..
He's so into attention to detail, he's even pre rusted the staples holding his vintage feel booklets together and created fold creases in the corner so they look like they've already been read .. that's F/X artist for you ..
He's coloured the discs white, yellow and red because the labels on the vintage rental Palace VHS cassettes were those colours ..
