Got ths PM on my Facebook page. Does anyone have any info on it? Hi Dan - I have a friend who sent me a question about a Prince collectible and I thought you would be the one to go to. here is what he sent me: It's a European special release of the Gold Experience on Cd. The atual disc is regular, but it comes in a black plastic case with his logo on it, and includes a black handkerchief with his logo, a necklace of his logo and also an earring of his logo. It includes a certificate giving its number, limited edition of 3000. The jewel case has two stickers stuck directly on it, one is the standard sticker on the front of the case listing the singles and the other says "Brit award winner". - Let me know if you have a chance!

Sounds like the customized releases (like D&P) that were locally authorized mid-nineties.

Kinda pimp my ride for cd's.

Is this the one. I purchased mine in Australia at the time gold experience was released. It was sold in a big chain of stores. I have yet to see another one anyhwere.

Nice item !! Not seen this before. I used to go mad for these type of things back in the day.

This one must have passed me by.

Are there any other examples of this being done for P's albums? I didn't think the D&P one was 'authorized'... Can anyone shed some light on these collectables?

Def not a WEA release.

BUT sometimes these things become rare as there arent too many of them, but at the end of the day, its not official.
