CRIMPSHRINE - SLEEP, WHAT'S THAT?  7" - TEST PRESSING / RADIO PROMO - Lookout Records LK 04 - 1988
Like the Isocracy 7" I had up here recently, this is one of the (likely four) original test pressing copies pressed of this 7", given to the Berkeley college radio station as a temporary advance promo before the real copies became available.
Local labels would sometimes give test pressings to local stations as advance promos once they were done "testing" them, and this was the one Lookout gave to KALX in Berkeley, back when I used to work there.  When the official record was released, the station would discard the advance and replace it with the real copy.  I used to rescue these from the trash from time to time (or my girlfriend, who was the music director at that time, would pass on the ones she thought I wouldn't want to see thrown away.) 
I never acquired a real cover for this one, so it's just as it was at the station:  plain white paper sleeve with printout of tracklist and info taped to it and title written on in (I believe) David Hayes's writing.  The labels are similarly written on, as you can see.
Anyway, as with the others, this is how I know for sure this was from those initial first test pressings and not some later test from any subsequent pressings of the same record.  This was 1988, for sure,  the first time anyone ever heard this, arguably the best record Lookout ever released.     Like I say, I'm pretty sure this would have been one of four, as that was the usual number. I forgot I had these till I was clearing out a closet recently and came across them in a stack of other forgotten 7"s.    This is a unique item. 
Condition:  I imagine this spent around a week in the radio station's bin before being replaced, and I remember that it did get played a bit because of "Tomorrow" (as dj's love a novelty and that had the Annie quotation.)  Still the vinyl is nice, looks never played.
This record is guaranteed to be as described and satisfactory to the buyer.   No refund on shipping, though, sorry.  
US shipping is a flat $3.  International buyers use the shipping calculator to get an idea, but ask about shipping charges before bidding if you like and wait for the invoice for the exact price before paying -- I'll find the best possible rate.  Please pay -- or at least email -- within seven days of the auction's end.
Any questions, feel free to ask.
Have fun.
