"I think it is you who are being naive if you think that your SuperGirl double disc set is really 'limited'!"

...as I wrote above, my 'LE' of Supergirl bears the prominently displayed number "38983/50,000" on the back cover - if anyone else reading this has the same set, I'll eat my hat - and yours, too! - if theirs bears the same number, rather than, say, "00376/50,000" or "01798/50,000" - get my drift?

Remember that samuelk wrote about his Men In Black set: "...the MIB Limited edition is not numbered, at least not that I can find." - either he didn't look very closely, or the set quite simply is not limited...

I have a two-DVD French limited edition of the 1913 silent serial "Fantômas" - it comes in a sturdy cardboard slipcase (quite unlike, e.g., the tacky Fight Club 'case'), includes a 32-page booklet printed on fine paper, and is labeled (on the back cover) "Série limitée à 12000 exemplaires. Ce coffret porte le numéro..." ("Issue limited to 12000 copies. This case bears the number...") and below it is a sticker saying 00897 - now that is what a 'real' LE should be (of course, it helps that 5 hours 35 minutes of silent movie serials - be they ever so famous and influential - is not everyone's 'cup of tea' ...)

Peace, nevertheless...
