Here's an EMI-rimmed copy. Interestingly, when I bought my Blue Box (which i thought was quite soon after release), all but LTS and MMT were EMI-rimmed. Posted Image Posted Image |

We seem to miss a SIUK label without the "want a know"error. Or do they only exist with the error? |

Of the first labels, is it fair to assume that the TNR label comes after the other one? I can't recall what typeset it is... :rolleyes: |

What we need to establish is the order these labels appeared. Here is my shot: So far we have five different labels Inbetween here the different smaller variations in credits, vertical/horizontal spacing etc. 1 Posted Image 1b Posted Image 1c Posted Image 2 Posted Image 3 Posted Image 3b Posted Image 4 Posted Image 5 Posted Image |

This looks like a reasonable assumption, but still it doesn't make sense why the Sold In UK variation still (or again) carried the title misprint.... |

No that's a puzzle and the only explanation I can come up with is when the change came, they took the first set they could find and reset them with the SIUK remark. But as I asked earlier; does the SIUK labels exist with the correct title? Noone has posted pics yet.... :unsure: |

In my box all but LTS and MMT are EMI rims. Well, just like Bill's... righty :rolleyes: :P Very peculiar those two different sets of rims in the box, I can't understand how they messed that up as the all should be EMI... |

Pulled this from a different thread - Do you all think that this, along with the others already displayed are all the UK variations ever released. Posted Image |

Again I think the answer to the Rim question is probably one of stock...they must have still had Gramphone Rim stock from pre-73 for some of the titles, where they didn't they had to reprint with EMI rim txt |

Well, that's the whole point of these threads and, indeed, this whole forum, if you ask me. I don't doubt there's more (minor) variations, remember these guys were rather popular and a whole bunch of pressings were made. I for one, like Baard, would like to see proof of a SIUK copy with the correct DYWTKAS title....... :blink: |

Me too - it's funny to think that the rarest item may actually turn out to be a label with the correct spelling - it makes me wonder if I have passed on one because I only had eyes for the "..Want A Know.." rarity :lol: Anyway - let's keep this thread open and keep our eyes open! |
