Live To Tell
Promotional Items
For the full narrative of 'Live to Tell' please refer to the entry under the SINGLES tab
'Live To Tell' sees the start of Sire issuing 7" singles with circular promo stickers on the rear of standard picture sleeves. This, it has to be said, is a very lazy albeit cost effective means of promotion, and they are not of great interest to the collector given the generic nature of the stickers. Accordingly, the 7" with promo sticker never sells for more than £5. Of more interest as a genuine promotional item is the 12" white label.
Moving on to paper-based items there is a rare counterstand for the 7" single and also a rare display flat for the new single, including the limited edition 12" with poster. The promotional items are rounded off with the usual music press advert, an attractive full page colour advert.
This section concludes with another printer proof rarity displaying a triplicate image of the artwork for the 7" single.
