Photo Gallery:

Here is a photo gallery of my copy of Great Insect War Original Soundtrack (CINK-9). This album was ordered alongside Hunchback Man Ghost Story Original Soundtrack (CINK-31) and is seen in the second photo. There is a separate post for that album. Also, I was a complete idiot and forgot to take photos of CINK-9 separately while still sealed. The photos were taken on September 16, 2019.
