Sleeve notes:

Textured gatefold sleeve printed by EJ Day Group, London & Bedford (credit on right hand side of inner gatefold). “Marketed by B&C Records Ltd., 37 Soho Square, London W1” appears on left hand side of inner gatefold. Spine lettering is pink and runs vertically down the spine, usually quite faded so it’s hard to read.

 

Label notes:

Pink ‘large’ Mad Hatter label. Note how the Mad Hatter’s hand is level with the spindle hole. “MANUFACTURED AND DISTRIBUTED BY B&C RECORDS LTD” credit at bottom of label.
