ALDEN PENNER l'espair

.


the woman i once loved and myself manufactored the covers for these 100 vinyl copies that alden got from the australian label that originally released it - another obscure edition coming with a crayon pack meant to color in the b/w silk-screened cover.

this one is different.

potato-stamped paperbags from the saint hubert-chicken-fastfood-chain, 7"-size-folded in a highly elaborate way: you have to take off the form-fixing staples to unfold it and get the essential inlay!


there are two different inlay-designs:

50 copies come with a tent-manufacturer-embossing, a company that was run in the 1920ies somewhere in ontario, canada;
the other 50 copies come with a unique foot-print (alden's, of course!).

34 covers are stamped in red, 33 in blue, 33 in white.

A is the first letter, number one. 9 is the highest numeral.

just in case you're wondering if there's any deeper signification.



listen.
