A box set of the first eight UK singles (White Riot, Remote Control, Complete
Control, Clash City Rockers, White Man in Hammersmith Palais, Tommy Gun,
English Civil War, London Calling) each in a repro of their original sleeve.
They were individually cataloged as no.s 44-5P-103 to 44-5P-110. The box
is in black, white, and red with "The Clash Singles" on the cover. It came
with inserts with the lyrics in English and Japanese, and with color photos
of all the relases up that time in Japan with dates and other info. I'm
not sure of the exact year of release.
