If anybody has purchased the classic records test print a long time ago . Please message me at. [email protected]. And I read comment that test prints are not seal . Yep some are . And the Aenima test print Dec 30 th by RTI was sealed . They generally have a perforated end to open If anybody here has any tool test prints. Open also please message me . I would like to know and document the matrix. I have the classic record test print myself but it is not open and the Dec 30 test print I will be acquiring soon. And that is sealed as well . . I do not think I am going to open them for the matrix. . Cheers. If anybody has any tool question about merchandise hit me up I am here to help :-) Cheers

The very first pressing of Aenima was released Sept 17, 1996. Under zoo entertainment. This test pressing exist and is numbered on the back of a normal Aenima jacket . It did not come in a white sleeve. Interesting fact is Aenima release dat was Oct 1st 1996, on compact disc. Weird but true. There was a second pressing done on Dec 31st , 1996 by RTI Records. The label on the back of this jacket says Zoo Entertainment/BMG. (The retail copy ) This test pressing did come in white die cut sleeves and yes it was sealed. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Tool-Aenima-2LP-Test-Pressing-SS-/151031279107?pt=Music_on_Vinyl&hash=item232a2a6e03 Now the classic records auction above was something done in 2001, 200 g remastered vinyl. For some reason it was never released. Original these copies sold for $400 online. What you see above is test pressing by classic records. pressed but never was released. It was discovered when they liquidated. Another company purchased classic records. I am not a expert on the history of classic records however I am on Tool merchandise . Hope I helped a few people .
