      Notes above are wrong.And I must again correct my posted comment (below) in the matter of pressings: Dark pink logo with black label is of course 3rd press.And Celtic Frost Emperor´s return 1st (and 2nd)press is with black label. So,here it is:
      1st press: Red logo,black label.
      2nd press:Pink logo,black label.
      3rd press: Dark pink logo,black label.
      4 - 5th press: Pink / Red logos,silver labels

        Notes above are wrong and with all consistency,silver-black-black-silver? 1st press: Red logo,black label.2nd press: Pink logo,black label.3rd and 4th presses with silver labels. Noise went from black labels to silver labels.See also Celtic Frost: Morbid tales (1984,black)and Emperor´s return (1985,silver) by others.
