Norman Dolph's original [[acetate disc|acetate]] recording of the Scepter Studios material contains several recordings that would make it onto the final album, though many are different mixes of those recordings and three are different takes entirely. The acetate was cut on April 25, 1966, shortly after the recording sessions. It resurfaced decades later when it was bought by collector Warren Hill of [[Montreal, Quebec]], Canada in September 2002 at a flea market in the [[Chelsea, Manhattan|Chelsea]] neighborhood of New York City for $0.75.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/39948-insanely-rare-velvet-underground-lp-on-ebay-for-19k|title=Insanely Rare Velvet Underground LP on eBay for $19K|date=May 6, 2007|website=[[Pitchfork (website)|Pitchfork]]|access-date=August 18, 2017|url-status=bot: unknown|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070506090053/http://www.pitchforkmedia.com/article/news/39948-insanely-rare-velvet-underground-lp-on-ebay-for-19k|archive-date=May 6, 2007}}</ref> Hill put the album up for auction on [[eBay]] in November.

Although ten songs were recorded during the Scepter sessions,{{sfn|Harvard|2004}} only nine appear on the acetate cut. Dolph recalls "There She Goes Again" being the missing song<ref>[http://olivier.landemaine.free.fr/vu/andsoon/studio/studio.html The Velvet Underground&nbsp;– Studio and home recordings] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090207090813/http://olivier.landemaine.free.fr/vu/andsoon/studio/studio.html |date=February 7, 2009 }} at The Velvet Underground Web Page</ref> (and, indeed, the version of "There She Goes Again" that appears on the final LP is attributed to the Scepter Studios session). In 2012, the acetate was officially released as disc 4 of the omnicomprehensive "45th Anniversary Super Deluxe Edition" box set of the album (see above). The disc also includes six previously unreleased bonus tracks, recorded during the band's rehearsals at [[The Factory]] on January 3, 1966. However, a [[ripping|ripped]] version of the acetate began circulating the internet in January 2007.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://fm-shades.blogspot.com/2007/01/velvet-underground-nico-april-1966.html |title=''Velvet Underground & Nico''&nbsp;– April 1966 (Norman Dolph Acetate) |date=January 2, 2007 |publisher=FM SHADES |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070312130033/http://fm-shades.blogspot.com/2007/01/velvet-underground-nico-april-1966.html |archive-date=March 12, 2007 |access-date=April 5, 2016 }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2007/01/velvet_undergro.html|title=Velvet Underground Acetate MP3s&nbsp;- WFMU's Beware of the Blog|website=blog.wfmu.org|access-date=August 18, 2017|url-status=live|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170819021852/http://blog.wfmu.org/freeform/2007/01/velvet_undergro.html|archive-date=August 19, 2017}}</ref> Bootleg versions of the acetate tracks have also become available on vinyl and CD.<ref>[http://olivier.landemaine.free.fr/vu/bootlegs/lps/blps.html The Velvet Underground&nbsp;– Bootleg LP's] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110325175009/http://olivier.landemaine.free.fr/vu/bootlegs/lps/blps.html |date=March 25, 2011 }} at The Velvet Underground Web Page</ref> The acetate was issued on vinyl in 2013 as a limited edition for [[Record Store Day]].
