The label art replicates (but not exactly) the image of the robot hands shaking from the badge on the front cover, in black and white, over a black and steel-blue background, with images of two small pyramids at 9 o'clock, and a small yellow circle at 3 o'clock.
In the side A runout matrix no., "53" in "MX17475343" is crossed out, and "54-1" in "SBP234654-15-1" is crossed out.
Catalog no.s are displayed as follows:
- SBP 234651 on front cover, spine and labels
- SQP 234651 and PCQ 33900 on inside of gatefold
- PC 33453 on labels
Thanks Captain if only I knew of the site you provided a hyperlink to before I went squinting in the Deadwax for Matrix numbers. Anyway it's nice to know for certain where it sits in the scheme of things.
It would appear that your Chappell publishing issue is the 2nd Stereo pressing.
1st Press Stereo = Penjane
1st Press SQ Quad = Penjane
2nd Press Stereo = Chappell
The copy I have uploaded for moderation has a few differences,
- SBP 234651 and PC 33900 on inside of gatefold (see added image)
- Labels list Chappell rather than Penjane as publisher (see added label images)
- Matrix / Runout (Side A Runout Groove Etched): * MX174743C SBP234651-1
- Matrix / Runout (Side B Runout Groove Etched): * MX174744D SBP234651-2
So the copy I have uploaded lists Penjane Music (Aust.) as publishers on the inside of gatefold and Australasia as country/region and has PC 33900. Whereas Whassup's original posting is the same but has PC 33453. The matrices on my copy have a C or D after the MX # and are etched whereas Whassup's are stamped and don't have a Cor D trailing the number. Finally, my label lists Chappell as publishers and Whassups lists Penjane. So whatever happens in the Moderation process both Whassup's Sleeve Right and all the labels will need to stay. After all that I'm left wondering whether I have picked up a hybrid copy as the PC#s and publisher details from my inner sleeve to label don't match. Any Floydophiles out there that can help out?
