Nervous Breakdown

VERSION #12 RELEASE: Unknown quantity released in 1998. SLEEVE: Navy blue ink printed on white matte (not glossy) paper sleeve. [a=Raymond Pettibon]'s artwork on the front and back of the sleeve is exactly the same as the 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th pressings. A small "Printed in Canada" logo has been added to the right of the barcode. The top edges of the sleeve are cut straight across the front and the back, with the back top edge being about 3/16 to 1/4 of an inch lower than the front top edge. This version has a barcode "0 18861-0001-7 6" on the back cover. LABEL: Blue labels, the same as the labels on the 7th, 8th, 9th, 10th and 11th pressings with the same following characteristics: sides are labeled as "Side One" and "Side Two". Has the Black Flag font and the Black Flag 4 bar logo. Typo showing the song length of "Nervous Breakdown" on side one as being 2:55 instead of 2:05. VINYL: 7”, black vinyl, small hole. Deadwax runout has “SST 001-A R-12806 L-19417” on side one and “SST 001-B L-19417-X R-12807” on side two. Interestingly, there is a slight difference in the deadwax runout between this pressing and the previous five versions. In the previous five versions, the "R-12806" in the deadwax runout looks like the "0" was actually a very small "6" and then was scratched out in a circular motion giving the appearance of a "0". In this 12th version, the small "6" is intact and has not been scratched out. PRIMARY DIFFERENCE(S) TO PREVIOUS VERSION: This 12th pressing/version changed the design of the top opening of the sleeve from arched to straight. It has changed to a small hole again. The paper sleeve is now matte and not glossy, and "Printed in Canada" is located to the right of barcode. Side one has a slightly different deadwax runout.
