• Second UK Issue from 1973. These copies were produced for a short time only, between first pressing and first repress, featuring earliest use of the new black Harvest "blue outline prism" label design. These early transitional pressings, still have on labels the rim text starting as "The Gramophone Co. Ltd". Rear top right corner has the text (IE 064 o 05249) between SHVL 804 and "stereo" centered (later copies have it left aligned). This original set includes two A2-sized posters and 2 stickers.
Both stickers are "FasPrint Permanent" & "Crack Back Patented"- "Permanent". Both posters have evidence of tape residue at all corners. Comes with the rare die-cut black polylined inner sleeve with patent number "1125555 1072844" and "Made in Great Britain" in silver at the bottom. This is the same as the very first pressing, and likely had overprints of them that was used up on some copies of this edition. Very rare to find a complete second issue set that includes the inner. Over all, real nice complete original parts copy from 1973! Don't miss!
