    I obtained this (and the similar copy of 'Faust' https://www.discogs.sie.com/release/23656214-Faust-Faust) from an old friend who worked at Recommended Records briefly and whose first job was to place the pressings of the first two Faust re-issues in their respective sleeves.. He came across these anomalies and asked about them and was told they were the test pressings so don't put those in the sleeves! At the end of the day he was told he could have copies for himself and he chose these ones.. He told me they were the only copies of this kind that he encountered, so I would really like to know if anyone knows of any other copies out there, or indeed any other information about them. I've always been puzzled as to why the older labels were seemingly deliberately placed with the printed information on display rather than reversed as would be the normal practice on white label pressings.. All highly unusual and to think they could have easily ended up inside the sleeves and sent out to some unsuspecting buyer along with the standard copies or the record!
