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
- Realised by the Brotherhood
- A Merciless Release
Ghostrider Edition

- except for the similarly antique font used on the back cover.
- The edition is strictly limited to 225 copies and numbered on the back cover.
- The cover front is black shows a large head and star logo in white print
- with the title of the bootleg written across it in the place where usually
- "Merciful Release" would appear.
- The cover back is white and shows a similar layout in the same antique font as
- the Brotherhood edition, giving details about the tracks, the sources and
- the release notes as well as a Walk Away / Black October logo and the numbering
