Discs in poly-lined white paper punch-hole sleeves. "Patent no 800513 & 973939" "Made in England" (Without 108)
Produced in auto-coupled sequence Side A/D and B/C :
Disc 1: 613008 Side A; Cat# (613008 A) [inverted over 613008]
Disc 1: 613008 Side D; Cat# (613008 B) [inverted over 613008]

Defect in matrix stamping on this early issue, altered by hand. Number on side C is different as 613009 B has been added with hand and the machine stamped number is completely scratched except //1.
On side B, ‘8’ & ‘B’ have been scratched out and ‘9’ & ‘A’ added.
On sides A & D, ‘9’ has been scratched out and ‘8’ added.
- Label A and C are similar
- Label B and D are different. The text beginning with "ELECTRIC LADYLAND" is higher up and closer to the centre.
Titles: This UK issue has no suffix to "Come On", "The" is prefixed to "Burning Of The Midnight Lamp" and "Cross Town" appears as two words.
Matrix / Runout (Side A runout, variant 1): 61300##8 A//1 1 19
Matrix / Runout (Side D runout, variant 1): 61300#8 B//1 1 54
Matrix / Runout (Side B runout, variant 1): 61300#9 A#//1 1 66
Matrix / Runout (Side C runout, variant 1): 613009 B ######## //1 1 3 1U
I would suggest that 2 of the sides are in ‘Good’ condition, and the other 2 sides are in ‘VG’.
The sleeve has consistent edge and corner wear
I think that I have priced the album fairly, I guess I will wait and see!
