Notes
There are three U.S. first pressings with the original embossed plastic sleeve:• Runouts with "-1" matrix numbers (without additional letters/numbers) correspond to the Pitman pressing. The normal "P" may be extremely faint or missing altogether (as on Variant 1 here). Stamped plate marks opposite the matrix are standard for Pitman (and do not generally occur at Terre Haute or Santa Maria).
• Runouts with "-1A" and/or "-1B" matrix numbers (Variant 2, here) are the Santa Maria pressing. (See also the Santa Maria test pressing and promo.) Look for a faintly-etched "S" and/or a backwards-tilted I or \ before the matrix number.
• Runouts with the "-1-2" matrix numbers and an etched T (Variant 3, here) were pressed at Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute but do not yet have a separate sub.
USA 1st press with tan Reprise label.
Labeled as "Side I" & "Side II".
Bagged in clear plastic sleeve with embossed "Clear Spot" logo on the flap.
This flap tucks into a clear horizontal band across the face of the wallet.
The disc is backed by a printed black on white insert. Insert is back-to-back glued white card, with radius corners at bottom, no "Clear Spot" logo printed.
Vinyl not in protective paper sleeve; some retail outlets may have included one at their own discretion.

I sourced this through discogs with the matrix number. The years have not been kind to the poly cover and it's ripped at the crease and has been taped. I'm rating the cover as fair for this reason.
The LP is in VG+ condition. There are a couple superficial scuffs on it but looks to be in very good overall condition.
I no longer have a turntable and so I can only grade it visually. It's shiny and should play well.
Thanks for looking.
