inlay detail, cassette

Issued in 1992 in the Republic of Croatia by CROATIA RECORDS, a local record company based in Zagreb. Cassettes were published in Croatia by this company only for a short period of three years. After that Croatia Records lost all contracts with foreign records companies and stopped publishing import artists. The new legal owners of foreign artists’s publishing rights don’t release locally made tapes, they simply import what‘s on the european market.
the text on the inlay flap translates as: Editor: VELJKO DESPOT Chief editor: SINISA SKARICA.
there's also a text by the ministery of education and culture of the republic of croatia (covered by a white sticker), saying that special low taxes have to be applied on this product.

set

500 copies. same cd, booklet and back inlay as the regular release. outer numbered cardboard box, with three cards. the front panel of the plastic cd case is opaque green.
metallic inks have been used for printing box, cards, and the 'nirvana' name on the cd case.
in old discographies this item is listed as a promo release, but there isn't any official logo or promo print on the box, and this graphic hasn't been used elsewhere, so it probably is an unofficial repackaging.
