    Very nice collection!  I know those 10 Sampler boxes are Uber rare.  Care to showcase a favorite record?
    I think there’s like 2 boxes that have ever shown up in the wild.  That’s one of them
    Truth and I know the other person that has the other.  There is rumor of one more in the wild but I haven't been able to track it down!dcp3y said:

    Thanks!  I dug this up to show Jim what the box looked like.  Like CP3 mentioned I think I am the only one to show their box...That sounds bad, lol.

    I had the chance to snag one but I got cold feet.  It was a time when I still wasn't sure if these were real or not.

    Congrats on that pick up!

    Crazy!  Seems like someone should have more to the story on why 100 sets (times two if you count mispressed large holes) and only have two (or so) boxes.  Where have all the boxes gone?  Was this a scrapped effort?  Inquiring minds have questions... Searching for answers that never appear.

    The boxes were “prototypes” hence why so few were even made.  This is what I was told from the source.

    Thanks Chris.  That is one lucky source.  200 sets at his/her disposal.  Guess I will have to make my own (unofficial) prototype to house mine. Next 10C contest, show off your bootleg sampler box?!?

    Cool idea. I’d love to see some boxes for the 2000 bootlegs too.

    I initially was going to make digital copies for everyone so they could make their own boxes but I decided against it.  It was such a rare piece I didn't want it to be tarnished.

    I finally got the two VHC starter kits. Paid roughly $100 each.

    I promise not to say, "I told you so" when some dude shows up here with a dozen pairs of socks and that screen name.
