Notes

This version has a large centre hole and the price code CB 131 printed on the back cover.
Etched inscription "££££" found in some of the variants is incorrectly transcribed. Please check the photo gallery for a detailed, close-up image of the actual etching that has nothing to do with the pound symbol. It rather resembles two H's connected together.

Release 8465181: version without the price code CB 131 on the back cover.
