℗ 1977 Virgin Records Ltd.
Copies with a large centre hole were dinked post-manufacture for use in juke-boxes.
Runouts are etched except for the plate marks which are stamped:
A single capital letter is stamped at approximately 9:00 relative to the matrix number at 12:00 (Aston-Clinton's characteristic "broken A" may appear as A, Λ, or ∴, showing only the serifs); plate numbers are stamped at 3:00. Some early variants may lack the "A" stamp and have a scribed/etched "<" across the locked groove instead (see Variant 14).

Does anyone have a copy of the 2003 black vinyl reissue, in paper A&M sleeve, EX or better, for sale at a NOT stupid price? Wanted for aesthetic reasons as there is no way I can afford an original.

There seems to be a lot of B.S. with print variations ? I have as one above A6 / B5 - Anti Slip ridges, but the pics included in 'More Images' do not appear to be all from same single ? The dead wax number pix, tone of label matches my own, full label & sleeve pics are to bright and garish to all be taken from same record ? If they are taken from same record well this only hi-lights more how pics from different angles / shades of light can all make something appear different ? Personally Im just a fan of whats printed stamped & etched as identifiers shades of colour from print / press runs is nuts !!!
Im still non the wiser of exact pressing my own copy is I usually give up looking as time runs away and just describe in comments my own copies differences. -
Beware A&M bootlegs of GOD SAVE THE QUEEN/NO FEELINGS. The bootleg preeses contains the VIRGIN-ALBUM-VERSIONS in bad quality. ONLY THE 7" of 35TH ANIVERSARY BOX of NEVERMIND THE BOLLOCKS contains the the right versions.
