Notes

Winchester rifle "─◁" etched in the runouts denotes this version was pressed at Capitol Records' Winchester, Virginia (WW) plant.

Issued with custom inner-sleeve that has credits, etc.

This version can be identified by the runout grooves as well as by the labels.

For example, on this version, the "Recorded In " appears printed on the line above the "Produced by" credits on the labels.

By comparison, the labels on the Los Angeles pressing variation present this information in the reverse order.

There are also subsequent versions with 'rainbow' colored labels.
