Obviously, I am way behind the curve in learning about all the different Racs releases. What're those??

I had a few questions about these:
1. Is the one sold on tmr store right now the US Warner version? It says they ship to US only. Catalog number they've given is RACS011G
2. Any idea how many of these were pressed?
3. Could someone please explain the description? (180gm, gatefold etc). There's nothing mentioned on the tmr site and raconteurs site doesn't exist anymore.
4. What are these art cards?
Thank you

licensed to WB, so I imagine they are still pressing them.
triple gatefold
4 (1 for each member) 9x9" sepia tone cards

just do it; it is awesome music and packaging :clap:

Collector's Choice has it for $25. I don't know what their international shipping costs are like, but if you spend $60 and use JAN1520 you can get 20% off.

SONG HELP NEEDED

Hey guys, so I've been recently listening to Consolers again and I remembered a number of years ago, on my phone, I used to have two songs from the Consolers sessions which were released but now all trace of them seems to have vanished from the internet. I can't for the life of me remember what the songs were but I know that they were previously unreleased and the first song starts with the end of Old Enough (The bit where the drums start playing a different beat and you can hear them talking)
Does anyone know what this song is called and where I can find it again? It's going to drive me mad!
