    The earliest releases of the Blue and Red sleeves had Black print on the inside. This was later changed to match whichever colour was on the front. The earlier Blue was also noticeably lighter than later issues. These earliest issues are rarer and as difficult to come across as the Black print sleeve. There is sometimes a lot of confusion about there being only 300 Black sleeve issues when they come up regularly for sale. I believe the reason is that the very first Black sleeves had the Print on the front at a different angle of about 30 degrees instead of the 60 degrees that all later variants have. I've seen a picture of this once but have been unable to find it again. PS I've found the picture but do not know how to it to discogs, if anyone wants to see it please me.

      According to current submitted images this issue has the "Live at Leeds" poster, should be the "Marquee" poster.

        I have come across at least 3 ( i own 1) black stamped albums that got laminated edges all around the front sleeve. It is not tape, it´s real lamination. My copy is a A1 B1 cutting, could this been an idea from the beginning that was dropped? / Mezzanine 67.

          Have several versions of the 1970 print. One with Dark Blue print on front, and the same print on the inside of sleeve, on the right side. Got another version with lighter blue print, and black print on the inside, left side. Can't find any of these on discogs.

            The earliest press is supposed to have the black printing

              Obviously one of the best live records of all time. A ruckus blasting through your speakers, it's some of the best work the Who ever did. A true classic.
