I'm also looking for non-English VHS sleeves from releases PRIOR to the current generic artwork now in use in all countries of the world.


Like these?

Yup! Them's the ones. The only sleeve I don't have is FRWL. My sleeve's of Goldfinger and Thunderball are marred by library rental stickers.

Have been on the lookout for these on Ebay myself. Sleeve's from this issue come up occasionally but it hasn't been my luck that the auction's are for the sleeve's I'm after. Will keep trying.

I still maintain that the first issue black label WHV series was generally the best range. Classic one-sheet art was used for all the UK/Australian sleeve's except DN, FRWL, YOLT and OHMSS. The German WHV range, however, DID utilise the one-sheet art for YOLT and OHMSS at least (both of which I have copies of).

Ah, the joys of collecting for the professional sadarase.
