Comments:

On the surface at the time of release this appeared to be a good collection of Six discs if you couldn't find either the Ultra Rare or Unsurpassed Master Collections, but the quality from packaging to audio isn't what it could or should have been.

This collection is totally obsolete other than the pressing details, and History there is nothing of interest in this title, ALL material is , was and is still available in better quality and more complete elsewhere.

A FAKE was issued within a couple of years and whilst the master matrix has been altered on this reissue, probably as they were no longer pressed by Pilz of Germany rather than to hide the original source, the details can still be clearly read.

The pressing of the Documents FAKE is also was on a different style of disc and variations in the artwork, see below. It is after this alternation to the matrix on the Glass master that the Documents Collection was also released on the Oh Boy! label , which many sources incorrectly list as the original releases.
