How Blood Records does limited editions
Blood Records typically builds its catalogue around single-release, single-version limited vinyl runs, differentiating each product through special pressing colors, standalone sleeve designs, and hand numbering — with no restocks once sold out. The "bootleg" concept for this Perfecth edition borrows the visual language of unofficial, privately-pressed records, styling the sleeve to look unauthorized while still including full release information via the pullout credit notes.
