PRINCE AND THE REVOLUTION - RASPBERRY BERET (12" VINYL) PRO-A-2313 PROMO

The 12" promo for "Raspberry Beret", like the other singles from this album, is special in that it has its own unique artwork on the picture sleeve.  Of course that artwork is limited to a dark red background, pink lettering and some trippy fonts, but it's still quite different from the commercial release and unique to this one 12".

The back of the sleeve is blank.  The labels on the actual record are the standard Warner Bros. blanks.  They feature a full color version of the logo on top and then more WB logos appearing as watermarks across the face of the label.  

The Paisley Park logo appears on the left hand side of the label just above the serial number and the words, "Promotional Copy.  Not For Sale."  The track repeats on both sides and is the single edit of the song.  The record plays at 33 1/3 RPM.  Prince is the composer of the track and this promo is limited to the American market.  The Paisley Park logo also appears on the front cover of the sleeve.
