Blue Label Variants
Year: August 2003
Tracks: Quarantined B/W Sucker / Part and Parcel / While You're Ahead
Label: Deranged Records – DY47
Matrix A: DERANGED YOUTH #47 A Re-1
Matrix B: DERANGED YOUTH #47 B Re-2
Inserts: No inserts, but some have photocopied ads, by Deranged; these vary, depending on what was available from the label at the time the individual record was sent out, an example is below:
Pressing info:
Test Pressings: Three batches of 6 or 7. The first two TP's were rejected, the third was approved. The old CS website stated 6 per batch but a collector in Europe has one numbered out of 7; sometimes extra test pressings turn up, either from the pressing plant, or somewhere else...
First Pressing : 1000 copies (Comprises 500 with screen-printed CS logos* and 500 with hand-stamped logos, less 10 set aside by the band that did not have logos).

Second Pressing: 500 copies (Screen printed logos*). Ethan: The only distinguishable difference between this and the first is the center holes might be very sloppily cut. I have one with really poorly cut center labels, they definitely aren’t round.
Third Pressing: 500 copies (Screen printed logos*)
Notes:
1) The blue label variants have fold-out sleeves, as pictured above.
2) *Regarding the screen printed logos, whether it's on the top left or top right relates to which pressing it was. I've not got to the bottom of which side relates to which press...
3) Hand stamped logos are probably just associated with the first press - I've seen these printed on both the left and the right. Also the hand-stamped ones I've seen have a black 'Pickering' dot on the label, like the picture below. Gord at Deranged says the entire pressing would have the dot, so for now I'm going with that being the first press and will maybe make sense of the others at some point...

Black Vinyl - 500 (Most have CS logo screen printed on top right corner of sleeve)

Remastered recording, therefore requiring new plates to be cut for repress. This pressing also has a new pocket sleeve, the design on the front is the same as previous versions, but the graphics and Deranged logo on the back are different.
