 Ad from the back page of Melody Maker now uploaded - 'printed upside down at advertiser's request' !
It states at the bottom right (or top left if you read it upside down) that "Brick Album due.. will be released on Friday February 18th".
Also I've only just noticed that the paragraph on the LP cover headed 'Art Demo Forces Closure" contains a duplicated line. Intentional?

 I may just have answered my own question. A copy with full newspaper and blue labels has just appeared on eBay, so I'm assuming that a few of these slipped out prior to the sleeve being redesigned as a normal single sleeve.

 Ah, I have a copy with the full newspaper sleeve but the record has the later blue labels. I bought it second-hand, so I'm wondering if this is how the later press came or whether someone along the way has simply slipped a later LP into an earlier sleeve at some point?

 Added slightly later labels without the white "I" at the top.

It does however, come with the full textured first press newspaper sleeve with thick card record sleeve compartment...

The vinyl is quite thin, but sounds good.

Matrices:

Side 1: A4 Ending
Side 2: B-2U Ending

The side 2 matrices are stamped, and are accompanied by the "Pecko" scratching in the deadwax, as with the first presses (So this must be the last of that run used for this side), but side 1 is all scratched, and is accompanied by a scratched: "Tam" (At least, that's what it looks like to me - could be: "Tale", butI think the first more likely)... so I think the first of a new run for that side.
