Erotica (picture disc)

This is the infamous picture disc that featured artwork depicting Madonna sucking someone’s toe. It was recalled shortly after copies were pressed because a news story was circulating at the time that Sarah Ferguson (Duchess of York, then‐wife of Prince Andrew) had been photographed doing the same. Most copies were destroyed, but a handful ended up on the collectors’ circuit.

Various counterfeit versions exist, which can be told apart from the official issue as a genuine "Erotica" picture disc:
1) carries a gold backing card, with the official "Madonna/Erotica" logo in the top-left corner. Counterfeit copies are usually missing this backing card.
2) has a white rectangular box containing its catalog # directly below the Maverick logo on the vinyl itself. Counterfeit copies are missing this box.
3) has "Orlake W0138TP" etched in the run-out groove of the vinyl. Counterfeit copies are missing these matrix etchings.
