Drag City promos that look like other labels

Kind of a boring question, but I'm intrigued. I've had the promo of US Maple's "Talker" for a while where the cd itself is designed to look like a Van Halen album. Now, after the recent Scott Walker talk, I picked up a copy of the Drag City release of "Tilt." The words "For Promo" are made to look just about exactly like the Fontana logo. Neat. Any other celbrity look-alikes out there?

Drag City always does something cool for their promo CDs. I have a Silver Jews promo where the art on the disc itself is a cartoon of a USED CD store being crossed out... supposedly their promos fetch $$ on eBay to collectors.
The last Smog promo was done up to look like something, but I can't remember. I think it's cool, anyways.

Stomache Ache Records/Dolor Del Estamago designed their logo after the one used by Matador Records. Hmmm.
