The textured picture sleeve shows a little light edge scuffing & ringwear with minimal signs of corner creases. The labels on both sides are clean with the lightest of spindlewear whilst the vinyl remains in excellent condition & showing minimal signs of play ILPS9134)

As previously stated there has been much confusion between this original first pressing and the later 1972 issue with a very similar label design. The only way to tell the two apart are the minor label differences.

The later issue has the timings of the songs in brackets and the text 'Island Records Ltd' on the right hand side of the label next to the publishing date while this first issue has the song timings left open (no brackets). The later issue also has Joe Boyd's production credit printed on two lines rather than just the one, and removes the 'stereo' notation.

Both issues are found with -1 matrix numbers in the run out groove.
The machine stamped matrix numbers are:
ILPS 9134 A -1U
ILPS 9134 B -1U

The textured sleeve was manufactured by EJ Day & has the Island 'i' logo and Basing Street address printed by the bottom edge on the reverse.
