Holy moly.... I've stirred up a hornets nestI went to bed feeling really depressed - I have always thought of this as a genuine copy - maybe not the reported first batch from Bill Butt but a genuine copy non the less. Feeling slightly better this morning after seeing Lens comments.Anyway after careful thought I have decided to remove this from sale until we can qualify its originality. I do not want to be accused of selling anything that isn't genuine and it will distract from my other sales which definitely are the real thing. I am gong on a hunt for the original correspondence I had with the seller back in the 90's as I met up with them to exchange money and the tape.Here's what I'm thinking - maybe there was another batch made from the original master a couple of years later by the production company?I would be happy to meet with anybody who lives in the South to review and discuss. Where abouts do you live Andy?

I worked for Scott from '90 to '92 and I don't recognise that cover. The pics in my link are the ones that came from Bill Butt. What does the tape label look like?

Hi Andy, I'm not too sure why you think this can't be a genuine copy? I purchased this from a promo guy in the early 90's who worked with Scott Piering. The Appearing sticker is genuine. Maybe he had the sleeve printed? All I know is it plays like an original and not a copy.

That case isn't from 1991. Colour printing? Non bitmap fonts? Not from 1991. That Appearing sticker looks too big as well. The VHS's from Bill Butt came in a plain white card sleeve with a typewriter style label. I was there when he delivered them. Here be pics...
