The Cleopatra version of On Parole was released in 1991 and was packaged
in a long box, at least first copies. There are also a version in
cloth bag. The Cleopatra version had a different front sleeve featuring a
band picture with the line-up with Lemmy, Lucas Fox and Larry Wallis.
In July 2009 I got an email from Mike Coleman who informed me that he gave his UK EMI CD of On Parole to
the founder of Celopatra, Brian Perera, to use for the Cleopatra release. This is what he wrote: "The
USA CD issue of "On Parole" (longbox and cloth bag) was in fact made from my original EMI CD which was a
bit rare at that moment, and I donated it to Brian Perera to use.
It never came back LOL, and I bought another one,
I was never totally pleased with the sound, I thought it didn't come out as good. But I was thrilled with the packaging".

A copy with a long box + another long box (Birthday Party) was sold on Ebay in
August 2006 for $86. Another long box copy was sold in October 2006 for $52.
