Description

Note I believe there were three first UK pressings in 1979 and each one was differentiated by a varition in the poster. 1st Sid with a drink, Second - Sid holding a knife, 3rd Sid Selling. All three early pressings came on the Virgin purple label with swastika, as is this item. Unfortunately, the poster for this item is missing so I am unable to determine if this is version 1 2 or 3 of the first presses.
