Of course back in the day I had all the New Order 12" singles...

...but when my student grant cheque arrived in 1984 - I hastened down to Lasky's Electricals for a Philips CD104 CD player.

The future was clearly digital and I stupidly sold all my vinyl!

In the last 10 years I have been buying it back at exorbitant prices.

Once again I now have a minty mint collection of all the UK New Order Factory 12" singles.

When I received a secondhand copy of the Sub-Culture 12" single in the generic black sleeve something told me it originally had a white inner sleeve (with a hole cut to match the black outer sleeve).

So I grabbed an appropriate white inner from another record...

...my question is - did I imagine this white inner - I am now wondering if Sub-Culture only had the piss poor black outer sleeve?

Great to see you remembered a certain posters MINTY mint description. I have all my original 12 inch records. It is indeed correct that a white inner sleeve..with hole is there. I like walking in the dark.. THANKS rocket MICK
