Merci à Josianne Guilloud.
Thangkas to James Low.
Scrodds to Chrystal.

Packaged in single jacket with black inner sleeves and two inserts (one with credits and one with United Dairies and C93 mail order lists).

VERSION 1:
Same matrix inscriptions and sleeve quality as This version, but with the following significant differences:

- THE SCYTHES ON THE RECORD LABELS ARE POINTING TO THE LEFT SIDE. (COUNTER CLOCKWISE)
- THE BLACK PRINTED INNER SLEEVES HAVE NO HOLES AND THEY ARE POLY-LINED ON THE INSIDE.

Originally released at the same time as The Red Face Of God / The Breath And Pain Of God 12, this LP was stated as limited to 93 copies for sale by mail-order only. However, this was available in shops and there were more copies made that were given out to friends, so the total number of copies that exist are more than 93 (perhaps twice as many). The B-side of the second record contains an etching by Steven Stapleton.

Apparently, there is a pirated version of this record set. The pirated, bootleg version can reportedly be distinguished by a semi-gloss cover, hand-numbered covers, and a very shallow etching on the art side.

The artist and title only appear on the spine and insert. On the spine it is Current 93 with The Black And Red Menstrual Show while on the insert it is 93 Current 93 with The Black And Red Menstrual Show.
