"The first pressing has a front-laminated cover (the major criterion to determine the very early pressings), no Main Man credits on the label, no "Gem production" text and logo in the top right corner of the cover back, a glossy label and the words "BOBIL" and "RASPUTIN" pressed into the matrix (though these words are difficult to detect)."
