Satanic Verses - These double-LP test pressings are delivered in a plain white sleeve with an insert


This is the test pressing for the Satanic Verses 2LP bootleg,
which presents the first of the two famous concerts at the Wembley Arena in London, where The Sisters of Mercy played on November 24th, 1990 at the end of the Tour Thing 1 tour in support of the fresh release of their Vision Thing album.

Obviously, at least one mispressing occurred in the process
at the Hungarian pressing plant as copies of both LPs appeared as individual items
on sale in online auctions. Of the two examples here, one has classical music, the other one
Hungarian folkore music on one side, see below.
