I think I have another variant.
Mine has the "Made in " and "Imprime en " on the back.
Side 1 has "Made in ", but Side 3 doesn't.
Side 1 and 2 have MPO scratched out.
Side 3 and 4 have "ma•" etched in the runout.

Anyone know if I'm missing it on here or if it doesn't exist yet? -

Edited 2 years agoThere’s no “made in ” under the 1984 or on the labels in these pictures like the description claims. -
I recently purchased (2xLP) from a member here but wasn't the edition I owning as a kid. All the graphics were right but copy I received was in glossy thin cardboard. My old copy was in a much heavier stock and matte, much like an old traditional jacket (think ELPs Tarkus album). Can anyone offer production history to help me find my old version?
