MAIT Artwork

Post by supplydavid »

Picked up a blue letter version of MAIT and wondered how many different covers were out there?

As this photo , from a collection belonging to a Jeff Wong , shows there are indeed many variations on the MAIT sleeve.

A lot of the differences were intentional , done to create limited editions that fans would have to buy again etc. Sometimes a different ink was used for the simple reason that it was cheap at the time that new copies were needed by the constantly cash strapped Stiff records. Happy collecting!

Looks as if I have a long way to go! Maybe I start by looking for the green lettering first
