Inner sleeve with lyrics printed in blue and pink, LSP-4813, Printed in England, also crediting Titanic Music.
Some copies, issued with a 21"x24" poster of the cover shot, also had a black & white peelable sticker stating: David Bowie Poster Enclosed.

The variations shown on this listing included both different stampers from the same lacquer cut as well as different lacquer cuts from the source tape.
The first number & letter combination after the matrix number (eg BPRS 4502- 1E, 2E etc) indicates the sequence of cuts (1,2,3) and whether they were cut at RCA or not (eg E). It follows that each cut may sound different from others.
