THE ROXY BY PROXY LICENSE

You might recall that a little while ago, the Zappa Family Trust offered a license for the "Roxy By Proxy" album.
At first, I thought that some freaks would pay the 1.000 US $ just to put the "Roxy By Proxy" CD master in a frame and on their wall, but it seems that some of the people that went along with the ZFT on this endeavor are actually producing copies.

As far as I understand it, the licencees are only allowed to change the CD label. All the other artwork has to remain the same.

And then there's Chendu1959's version, who put the CD in a 12" package :
