On the cellophane wrap there is a circular sticker, black and gold, divided into twelve like a horoscope with
symbols, not astrological, more like those on the Led Zepplin 4th release. The sticker holds the flaps of the cellopane
together.

Yep. They used that because the jewelbox is so thick that the cellobag wont reseal.

On Dispatches....disc 3 track 16 aka White Light...is a 5:30 min guitar solo that sound just like that from the LR and VU live 1969 official release. Disc 3 track 4 aka I Cant Stand It is the first time I noticed Lou sing "My landlord called me up" instead of "my landlady..." The 7:30 min mark on this track to the end of said track is worth what it took to obtain this release (AFAIC) if one reason were all the encouragement you needed.

I've just started seeding CD1 of the set, http://velvetunderground.be/torrents-details.php?id=169 :D Sound quality is very good overall, listening to CD3 at the mo. I'll try to start seeding the rest later this evening.
