FACT 25 comes in two vinyl editions: Black and translucent dark red. It can only be differentiated when holding against a strong light source.
Apparently, this is due to Martin Hannett, who ordered a second master cut after he found out that 5000 records were pressed without the initial master having been approved.
This is the black vinyl
