Another rare Cocteau item: This is a 4-CD promo set released only in Canada on 4AD. The 4 CDs are dedicated to 4 artists, each have their own CD of tracks in the set. There is an entire CD of Cocteau tracks included (considered to be a HOLV promo CD). The other artists are Pixies, Lush & DCD. It comes in a cardboard sleeve which folds out and is closed by a string which you wrap around a cardboard circle. You normally find these closures on large envelopes and they don't often appear on CDs.

Here's what the item looks like (CT CD only is shown, there are 3 other discs):
