A 9 on back cover, lower right is the ID for the Modern Album Finishing Co, which printed the cover.
cvinyl has these rainbow-stripe labels as late 1968/early 1969 to 1970.
bsnpubs shows no releases for Tower later than 1970.
discogs has Tower Records as a subsidiary of Capitol, active from 1964 to 1970
Sift the information on Discogs and this copy is probably a 1969 Capitol Jacksonville Ill pressing.
What a hoot we have here. Starts out with a Who/Kinks-like ‘See Emily Play’ and ends up with ‘Interstellar Overdrive’ which any hardcore band would have been proud of. A real solid plant for a first album.
Who was it to label the spine with The Pink Floyd?
A first album to be proud of. Very well kept copy.
