10,000 black vinyl copies. The earliest copies have mis-colored (dark grey instead of black) hair on the center ghoul's head due to a bad printing job. The vinyl is thick and opaque. Matrix etching is PL-902-A (or PL-902-B for side B) MASTERDISK EDP S9, S10, or S11 and front background is light purple. At least 3 of these copies have Earth A.D. center labels on both sides (one owned by Mike Holland, two by Jerry Pardue). The rest of the black vinyl copies are available in three combinations. There is a light purple front cover background version with PL-902-A (or PL-902-B) MASTERDISK EDP etchings on very thin, but opaque vinyl. The dark purple front cover background version on medium thickness, opaque vinyl has the same etching (PL-902-A MASTERDISK EDP). There are also light purple front cover background copies on thin, translucent vinyl with PL-902-A MASTERDISK EDP SM3 in the side A matrix, and PL-902-B MASTERDISK EDP M2 on side B.
100 green vinyl copies with dark purple background on cover. Several of these copies include black swirls in the vinyl.
500 yellow vinyl copies with dark purple front cover backgrond.
200 purple vinyl copies with light purple front cover background. Many of these copies include yellow and green swirls in the vinyl.
200 clear vinyl copies with light purple background on cover. Most of these copies are actually light purple vinyl.
LP sleeve for all 1st pressing copies has Plan 9 logo and address. All colored vinyl copies have the PL-902-A (or PL-902-B) MASTERDISK EDP matrix etchings. Vinyl appears to have been pressed in this order: black, green, yellow, purple, clear, black.2nd:Caroline; Plan 9: PL9/02 (1986)
Black vinyl copies with dark purple front cover background and thin vinyl. These copies appear to be translucent, charcoal brown when held to the light, and have PL-902-A (or PL-902-B for side B) MASTERDISK EDP MZ matrix etchings. Back cover includes Plan 9 logo (but not address) and Caroline logo and address.3rd:Caroline: 1704-61902-1; Plan 9: PL9/02 (1988)
Black vinyl copies identical to 2nd pressing with bar code printed on sleeve. Later copies have white outlines around the "EARTH A.D." and "WOLFS BLOOD" lettering on the front and back cover. Some copies lack the artwork on the center labels and have regular text instead.Producer:The Misfits and Spot.Session:[07//1983 Fox Studio]Notes:All 4 band members are featured as monsters on cover, from left to right with green eyes: Doyle, Jerry, Glenn, Robo. Most discographies incorrectly list the yellow vinyl as 200 copies. Glenn typically pressed 1000 colored vinyl copies of Misfits releases, and coupled with the more common appearance of the yellow vinyl copies in the collector market, it can be assumed that there were actually 500 copies.
