Story:
Two UK variations for Prince - I Wish U Heaven of this kind are known to exist: this dark purple one, and a blue one (Prince - I Wish U Heaven). Both are perfectly finished including labels. The colouring though, in particular for the purple one, is irregular and has some black spots. The blue one is a bit cloudy at a second look.

It is assumed that coloured versions for Prince - I Wish U Heaven were considered but not officially released. The number of existing copies is not known. Since 2002, the French collector's site Sleevographia documented two eBay​ sales for the purple version and another two sales for the blue version.
