- According to the Phantom Twins' discography booklet, p.21, the first issue was on black vinyl and came in a laminated sleeve,
- while following issues came in a large variety of colours and in a cover without lamination, allegedly in limited editions of 500 copies per vinyl colour.

Stonehenge - here with Dark Paradise vinyl
- The labels are usually plain white. Some have a small "1" / "2" print on them or are marked in hand-writing "A"/"B",
- while others allegedly even come with side track lists. We have not seen any labels with side track lists so far,
- neither printed nor in handwriting, what we have seen, though, is a black vinyl copy of this bootleg sold with a Dark Paradise vinyl,
- which features the very same content as Stonehenge, see the picture here on the right side.
- The back cover is plain black with a track list and various information about the release.
- Backcover Notes:
- Sisters of Mercy - written above the track list omitting the article, although on the front the band is named properly.
