I'm utterly perplexed by this choice. Perhaps the thinking was that the original artwork would be reproduced for the vinyl reissue? Overall the Barking deluxe edition was the more successful object.

there is the mmm...skyscraper book....i actually have multiple copies, the first edition (1994) and the 2nd edition (published in 97), the first edition uses a different paper stock making it not as thick as the 2nd release, and it also looks like the first edition (at least the one I have) got cut a quarter of an inch shorter.
