Notes

Comes in a 24-page book-bound jacket with printed inner sleeves.
The picture on the cover is spot varnished.
Sticker with barcode attached to the rear shrink wrap.

Track C4 is stylized as lower-case, "loml"

Differences from the European version:
- European version has a "Made in " sticker attached to the rear shrink wrap; whereas this version has "VINYL MADE IN MEXICO" printed on the rear shrink wrap
- Matrix / Runout is different - this version was pressed by Vantiva, Guadalajara, Mexico and has a stamped 7-digit matrix in parentheses (e.g., "(1252369)") whereas the European version doesn't have this and everything but "STERLING" in its matrix is hand-etched.

    Beautiful copy of this album. Sounds amazing! Probably the best pressing of this album out there

      The whole album’s concept is presented so well, Taylor puts so much effort into giving the best of what she can give to the fans. Having a full book, colored disk, and pictured sleeves all make this a great album to have.

        Mine is a little bit noisy at the beginning but then it gets better, the mixing is perfect and i love how clean her voice sounds. The booklet is literally such a nice touch. Masterpiece

          Can anybody confirm if this was cut by Ryan Smith at Sterling or someone else? Check for the sterling stamp in the runouts.
