    My copy has clear/brown translucent vinyl w the cover image looking sorta burned into it. Anyone know about this press?

      I can't find one of the copies I have. It is a German pressing on Polydor with a regular white sleeve with x-ray hand, not translucent, with lyric insert on heavy stock paper. The real zinger is that it has the silver embossed labels that the translucent one had but is on translucent maroon colored vinyl!! I can't where I bought it and had forgotten about it. The vinyl is a dark red similar to some of those early Japanese Beatles albums from the sixties on dark red translucent vinyl on Odeon. I'm wondering if it was black vinyl that turned translucent maroon in my closet over the past 50 years! Would love to hear from anyone with any say in this matter as there is only mention of a UK pressing on black vinyl but with red Polydor labels. Mine has the embossed silver ones.

        The images shown of the 'original German issue' are helpful to anybody interested in what this musical ART(ifact) looks like, however the description of the 'plastic lyric sheet' (by Uwe Nettelbeck) is correct- even though the paper insert is much more readable,the clear plastic insert/clear plastic vinyl/clear plastic outer sleeve,silver label is for obvious reasons quite difficult to 'decode'...

          The album that Nurse With Wound must have gotten his sound from.
