SINGLE BOX a.k.a. MATER DOLOROSA BOX SET a.k.a. THE VISITOR BOX SET      5 X 7" BOX SET  1987 

Variously referred to as Single Box, Mater Dolorosa Box Set, or The Visitor Box Set, depending on whether you read the front of the box,
the back of the box, or assume the records inside are all variants on The Visitor.

Limited edition of 12 numbered box sets containing five copies of the single listed above in five different sleeves, plus inserts.

The box is made of light grey / white card and it's stapled together. The cover image is glued on.


It contains copies of the singles listed above in either the same sleeves or similar sleeves, a folded numbered insert, and a photo insert with
"This box is limited of 12 sets. Dedicated to Ian Curtis" written on the back.

This is the photo insert:

      

Confusingly the folded numbered inserts are numbered out of 35 when there are only 12 box sets. The 35 refers

7" singles listed above



The insert provides confusing information about the various versions of the 7" single


The set includes the following sleeves, which are either the same as the listings above, or the same design printed on better quality marbled paper:
