The US pressing is on the Arista label.
This particular release has a drill hole through the back (indicating that it is an import item).

The album is wrapped in celophane with the promo sticker on the front,
and the turn on a friend cd itself is also wrapped in celophane and is placed up front, replacing the actual cover.
Wether all the albums were availble like this in the USA, that's unclear to me.

Tom 1 sampler

   
   
           
         
 

TOM1
5-track CD-Album sampler, cardboard sleeve.

1. You Cut Her Hair 
2. Dose Me Up 
3. Bloodless 
4. The Boy With The Bubblegun 
5. I Ain't Scared Of Lightning 

This sampler is unique, as Dose Me Up differs from the final version that ended up on the album.
This version is also 03:48 minutes long, but has more strings, while the album version was stripped from these instruments.
There is also a sticker attached on the back, as this was a promo item for radio stations and D.J's.

My personal copy was signed when I bought it.
It looks genuine to me, but I presume the regular version isn't signed by Tom.
