Queens Of The Stone Age - Self-titled Translucent Yellow Gatefold Vinyl LP Rare Bootleg

This is a very good quality bootleg of the extremely rare translucent yellow release of QOTSA self-titled record on vinyl, very hard to tell the difference between this bootleg and an official release. The way you can tell is that the bootleg versions have both sides of the gatefold sleeve open while on the official release, only one side of the gatefold sleeve is open to house the vinyl record. Also as mentioned below, this release does not have any matrix etchings on the vinyl runout grooves on either side, while the official release would have them at 2 points on both sides.
It comes in a standard white inner sleeve in a very nice gatefold cover (see pictures). The vinyl itself is in very good working condition and plays perfectly. It does have a few light scuffs and marks due to the age of the vinyl. These could be buffed out though with a vinyl cleaning brush.
I haven't seen this particular bootleg or the original version of this album online for sale so it looks like it is quite hard to come by even though it is a bootleg and not the original.
