Alright you collecting lot. I bought a TIMTTMY CD today because there's no text on the front cover. After some research I can't find anything about the missing text. Can any of you guys shed any light on this?

There was a limited edition where the text was embossed in the plastic cover of the CD (catalogue number (Epic) 491703 2). If the case was broken it maybe was changed to a plain one.

i'm in awe at everyone who has posted here

my collection comprises:
the deluxe JFPL with the book/demo cd thingy
10th anniversary THB
" " EMG
losts of manics stuff on my iPod
a few postcards/pictures of the band

and that's it i used to have SO much. Then i got trapped in this weird 'too much stuff' period which coincided with a tedious few years of mental fucked-up-ness *lolz...

I'm pretty sure that's the catalogue number of mine.

Strangely enough the album I bought was supposed to be brand new, still in the celephane from the well known CD shop, 'Fopp' but no embossed text on the case.

sounds like it was the limited edition mistakenly put into a plain case rather than an embossed one, or perhaps they ran out of the cases.

well, to be honest, there may only be a couple of the mistakenly cased ones in the world, so maybe you do!

Probably, but maybe only if you keep it in the cellophane...

Posters for the US Generation Terrorists, Holy Bible European Tour and Found That Soul with a bog roll just in shot, classy.


Masses and LT posters.


Postcards, INWJTEOL and SKON stuff.


Fanzine thing bought from counterlanguage, Bulgarian cassettes at the bottom, Indonesian cassettes of LB and FD, and ME reissue with acoustic Faster on it.


Australia Lionrock white label, EMG Chemical Brothers white label, US GT LP, jukebox promos of Everlasting and Australia, cdr promo of That's No Way To Tell A Lie that has a Finnish sticker on it, and Euro Masses promo.


Australia Lionrock white label comes with a press release. If I had a better camera you'd be able to read that "This vinyl is mailed to only 20 club and radio specialist DJ's - Please make sure that your reactions are sent back completed and on time. Thank you". Foreverdelayed.com was asking about it a few pages back. Course, it doesn't prove 100% that there are only 20 copies of it, but it's looking very likely.

I'm pretty sure if I stacked all my Manics cds on top of each other, they'd be taller than you

Rich your Manics stuff would be taller than me if you included tapes and vinyl.

It's in Manchester, I'll take you there under cover of darkness some time Klaudia.
