On a slightly different thread - THE WEDDING ALBUM
I have the following variations

1. The Wedding Album [BOX - complete]
2. The Wedding Album [BOX – missing photo strip] side 1 txt slightly raised higer 3mm
3. The Wedding Album NO BOX – raised outer rim side 2 txt slightly higher 3mm
4. The Wedding Album 1973 issue in USA Box Shiny Matt label side 1

Looks as though 2 & 3 may be crossovers with labels for side 1 & 2 txt 3mm higher than 1st issue
The Matt label is only for side 1 but there must be copies of a side 2 matt label too

Pics would solve this mystery.

Whether labels look shiny or matt it's quite a subjective criterion. There are other informative features of copies of the Wedding Album to pay attention to: certificates (yes, they may be different). boxes (UK or USA), inner paper sleeves and of course stampers' numbers.
From what I've managed to find out, UK boxes appear to be the earlier version for example.

A 1973 issue of the Wedding Album sounds mysterious, did they really manufacture it in 1973? Seems unbelievable, honestly speaking.

the assumption to 1973 is only due to the fact of a matt label to one side

Could you post pics of your label versions of the Wedding Album ?

yes we would need to see a pic if it is a UK matt label

They certainly do exist for Wonderwall & live peace but I've never seen them on either of the Zapples let alone the Wedding album
