Summary
A Sony PlayStation game called Michael Owen's World League Soccer, WLS99. The box is made of transparent plastic in a square, with a narrow black strip of plastic down the left side, imprinted with 'PlayStation' going from bottom to top vertically. There is a hologram sticker on the bottom left of the plastic case. Once opened the case contains a paper printed insert held in place by small plastic securers to create the cover. It has the PlayStation logo in the top left corner, a large picture of a football player from chest-height (Michael Owen) and the title centre left in red, black and blue text. A logo for 'Silicon Dreams' is the bottom right and opposite on the bottom left a 'Edios' logo. In a black banner across the base is 'PlayStation'. Down both right and left sides in the plastic are paper inserts that say 'Michael Owen's WLS 99' in white on black backgrounds with the PlayStation logo at the top end. However, on the left side bottom is a yellow sticker with 'Acorn Records, Truro' in red print and 'E £22.00' in black ink beneath'. Back inside the box is a paper information booklet printed in black and white text inside, but with colour covers. It has the same cover design as the paper insert. In a black plastic moulded section is the disc itself which has the same design and information as the cover, but with a large quantity of red text going around its circumference. The reverse of the disc is black. Attached to the moulded section are two stickers, one is white with black handwritten ink reading 'D660' and the other is gold coloured with black printed ink reading 'Acorn Records' and their contact details. The back cover is very detailed with the title, four game graphics in boxes and general information down the left side, a photograph image of Michael Owen in the centre, a black background on the left with PlayStation information and the barcode. At the base from the left are more logos and game information and copyrights etc. Total number of items is 3.
