Limited Editions of the Albums [Q 4 the oldies perhaps?]

Hey Folx,

I was just wondering. Since I became a fan in 1998, I've been able 2 pick up most of the limited editions of the albums Prince released since then:

Batman black circular box
Diamonds&Pearls Hologram [in US this was regular release??]
0(+> gold box
Black Album [limited release un2 itself]

But I'm wondering if there have ever been limited editions of albums like Parade or Sign O The Times [obviously not with different songs, I know, but with different packaging].

4 instance, I've seen a lot of pictures of the PARADE album with a slightly different cover.

My copy only has Prince's picture on it, but the very early edition, I believe, also had

"Prince And The Revolution: Parade music from UTCM" printed on the cover booklet.

Anyone???

Thanx.

Limited albums...hmm lets see...

Vinyl:

Controversy with "the" poster. (US)
1999 single album (Europe)

Purple Rain with poster (everywhere)
All the various black albums

CD

Around the world in a day (gold CD)

u know ive bought 3 different ATWIAD cds...
#1 long box with cd envelope inside green writing on the cd
#2 Same with black writing on the cd
#3 longbox with regular cd case and green writing on the cd

i also have
2 graffiti bridge cds...with different inside booklets

i guess these are just 2nd/3rd pressings....etc...they werent labeled LTD.ED. or anything

i bought SOTT when it came out and it was in a long box with 2 seperate cds/2 seperate books...now its in a 2cd case...

oh! come to think of it i have 2 different dirty mind cds too..1 cd has a grey printed label on it (looks very old) and the other has the words printed on the cd itself....
Purple love-amour is all U're in it 4
