AND
Hafler Trio: Wolf Sheep Cabbage 3 X 7" Box Set With Wooden Box VG+ to NM Letterpress Print, signed and numbered (??? 87/200 ???) VG+ to NM Wolf Sheep Cabbage (Evidence Pertaining To The Destroyer) NM/NM (unplayed) Wolf Sheep Cabbage (Evidence Pertaining To The Creator) NM/NM (unplayed) Wolf Sheep Cabbage (Evidence Pertaining To The Preserver) NM/NM (unplayed)
I DON'T SEE ANY SIGNATURES OR NUMBERS ANYWHERE EXCEPT ON THE PRINT! which looks like 87/200 to me. I may be wrong. I am not an H3O collector, so I am not familiar with his writing. I know that the set with box was limited to the first 33. So why is the print #ed this high? Maybe I am not seeing things proper, or maybe I have something out of sorts. Maybe the 7 inches are #ed inside, I have never unwrapped them to see. I was told this was one of the 33 edition. If it's not... I have no idea what it is. 
So because of this issue- This is sold AS IS! AS IS! AS IS!
It was given to me by a friend around the time it came out, I was told it was one of the 33. I am no longer in contact with him, so I can't ask about it.

Now the technical stuff (please read):

Edition of 500 copies.

Original press release: 
“Normally” reunites The Hafler Trio and Soleilmoon for the first time since 1996, when “An Utterance of the Supreme Ventriloquist”, a limited edition clear vinyl LP wrapped in  hand-made Japanese paper was released. 
The first CD in this two disc set is based on the voice of Einsturzende Neubauten’s Blixa Bargeld.  A particular phrase was read three times, in Blixa’s three trademark vocal styles: Whispering,  hysterical and ordinary. “Normally,” the title of this CD, is a reference to part of what Blixa  didn’t say when he spoke his phrase, and also to the way the German word for “Normally” is used.  Although there are seven titles associated with the album, the music flows as one continuous  track. They refer to different sections in the piece, but some of the changes are subtle, and  the listener is left to discover them on her own. Or not.  The second disc, “Sphotavado”, is also based on vocal recordings by the Einsturzende Neubauten  frontman. Three “meaningful” vowels were taken and arranged according to certain rules of  Sanskrit. By repetition of these sounds, vibratory rhythms are created in the body to awaken  the psychic fields. Everything, from our thoughts and ideas all the way up to things like people,  trees and mountains, is a result of these vibrations. Along with its energy, every object has  its accompanying range of sounds. Vibration is therefore a result of sound, not its cause. The  name “Sphotavado” is the name given to this concept of sound, and is referred to in many trantras.  It forms the foundation of tantric mantras, which are a fundamental aspect of Vedic rituals.  Like the music inside, the packaging for this release is at once subtle and complex, presenting  a simple and clean exterior that opens and unfolds to reveal (or hide) its complex inner  workings. Designed by The Hafler Trio mastermind Andrew McKenzie himself, the sleeve and  accompanying artwork are an intrinsic part of the whole package.  It is essential that the music be played back through speakers, rather than through headphones, where its effects would be negated. Likewise, conversion to MP3 will render the music  ineffective, as the compression removes the most important information. 
Andrew McKenzie’s favorite fruit is the pomegranate".

Label: Somnimage ?– som10009 Format: Vinyl, Limited Edition, 7", Clear  Country: US Released: 2003 Genre: Electronic Style: Abstract, Experimental, Ambient
Tracklist A On Assimilation 3:26 B On Struggle 3:21
Notes Part 1 of the "Wolf Sheep Cabbage" set.  The three single set consists of three 7" records pressed on clear vinyl,  three accompanying booklets printed on heavy opaque paper and a letterpress wrapper printed by  Starshaped Press in Chicago, IL.  Each part is released separately and limited to an edition of 333 copies. 
Numbers 1 to 33 were signed and numbered by Andrew McKenzie and included special letterpress  prints. Subscribers received a wooden screenprinted box to hold the set. 
From the booklet:  All material dissected, rotated downwards, moved, hips grasped, flying through the air as the  gaze follows as if stopping would result in the limbs snapping off, at the G*D facility,  Reykjavik, 2002. Those that were involved have been paid. And only we can do this. It is a  way that has been approved, and still more movement provides the impetus. That which is allowed  is only approachable with the certificate. It's in the bottom left hand drawer, remember? Sleeve  by someone in some sort of piece of luggage, or perhaps the luggage itself. No, not indentified.  D42 wafted through with a plethora of toothpicks (even though dinner had not yet been served).  Printed by Starshaped Press and released by Somnimage to whom this project is license. Published  by Freibank. Vetted by flammable action. Seen by eyes and ears without prejudice. Two palms touch  and fingers point upwards for Mykel, assistant moth wrangler Annika Lundgren, Andrei Bakhmin,  thee old man Hundley, Robert E. Baker, William Brady, the aroma of something which does not move  but will take place, and the blending of the cocktail that goes down far too well to be even a  concern for the underaged.
