And here is some info from the internet about this particular label variant:
The first pink Island label (1967 - Summer 1969) - This is the first Island label with a bright pink design, often referred to as the 'Pink Eye Label' or 'Eyeball Label'. The first album with this label was John Martyn's London Conversation (1967), and the last one Dr. Strangely Strange's Kip Of The Serenes (ILPS 9106, 1969). In the summer of 1969 Island started to use alternative label designs, however not chronologically. But all ILPS releases earlier than the Dr. Strangely Strange album, with the exception of ILPS 9100, ILPS 9102, ILPS 9104 and ILPS 9105 have been originally issued with this Eyeball label.
LP is VG+, with light scuffs on either side. (Looks more like "impressions" made by plastic lined paper sleeve.) LP plays with light intermittent surface noise. Surface noise may be reduced with a professional clean. LP has a small lip warp that does not affect play. Interior labels are clean. Thin laminated cardboard jacket is VG+, with no seam splits. There is ring wear on the front and back of the jacket. There is a crease in the front top right / back top left corner, which cause a slight "corner lift" when you observe the jacket sitting flat. There is a light crease in the front lower right corner. There is light wear along the lip of the jacket. There is light scuffing on the front and back. Jacket retains bright coloring and a nice gloss on the front and back. Overall a nice copy to own!
