Cover (front) of the Second And Third Issue of the Brotherhood Edition

The Brotherhood Editon
This edition exists in several different issues.

• Some acetat is known to exist. Further information on this is, however, not available.

• The first issue comes in a b/w cover consisting of a plain white sleeve

with b/w DIN-A 4 copy sheets glued to it on both sides.

The cover front shows a b/w print of a churchyard,

while the back cover lists the details of the release

Black vinyl with light-pink labels

• The second issue has the same layout as the first one, apart from the fact

that darkpink (red) DIN-A 4 copy sheets are glued to both sides of the plain white sleeve.

Black vinyl with light-pink labels

• The third issue is almost identical to the first and second one, but comes with blue vinyl.

This issue is apparently most rare, since no picture of the blue vinyl could so far be traced.

The sleeve notes of the aforementioned issues are identical:

• Front sleeve note:

Take My Hand And Lead Me To The Garden Of Delight

• Back sleeve notes:

Produced by the Shaman For 33° Productions
