    For the Indianapolis RCA Pressing:

    The etchings on mine are very similar, however,

    Side A reads: (R 131992A 1 I ^I 3? or it could be a 'W'? or an 'E')
    Side B reads: (R 131992B 1 I ^2 L)

    Anyone have these?

      My copy is catalogue number 9100 042 and is identical to the early UK pressing except it doesn't have an inner sleeve and the label shows: All titles Intersong Music Ltd. instead of Heath Levy Music Ltd.
      Anyone know why this would be?
