Bruce Springsteen 2005 Japanese mini-LP's 15 Years, 2 Months ago

Karma: 1

I've recently bought several of the 2005 Springsteen Japanese mini-LP's (from reliable Japanese sources) and noticed that a few of the CD's don't come with the silver and black sticker on the reselable outer sleeve and a coupon. I understand that it was a promo sticker to obtain a box to house the 17-CD issue.

Does anyone know if the CD's that came without the sticker (and the coupon)are from a later pressing, or whether it's a manufacturing mistake? (I'm referring specifcally to "Tunnel of Love", "Greatest Hits" and "The Rising".

There was a reprint in 2008 for serveral Springsteen tittles. You can check the albums included in that reprint in the Born in The USA boxset:

A reprint is exactly as the original release, donÂ´t change obis or dates. Is like to extend the original release and Sony CBS has done it many in 2008. We as collectors hate the reprints because change the value of what we already have.

Anyway, a promo sticker like that can be removed, not itself but the whole reseleable bag, for many reasons. If they are from a trusted japanese source I donÂ´t will care about it.
