Dead By 23

When Dead By 23 Records started putting out about 10 versions of every record, I thought it was insane, and a step too far. I was happy to buy one copy of each and leave it there. A few years later DB23 releases started cropping up on ebay with increasing frequency, and the prices seemed to drop to next to nothing. So I started collecting them. Today I got a couple of particularly nice ones.

Down To Nothing 7" with alternate sleeve numbered 9 of 30 (I think this is the record release show sleeve):


Scraps & Heart Attacks 7" Test Press, number 12 of 12. The best thing about this is that it was originally stamped "112 of 112", and the first digit of each 112 was tip-ex'd over. Nice work.
