The records were repackaged with UK inner-sleeves and were sent to the shops unsealed.

Both labels carry Mfd by Capitol Records..' rims.
Housed in its orignal 1st issue cover with its 24-page colour booklet.
The inside the front leaf carries the incorrect '..BMI' publishing credits and the non-script 'No You Not..'
Complete with its plain white 'Patents Applied For' inner-sleeve.
