Orange bullseye pink label UK pressing, which is different to the other orange bullseye pink label UK pressing Stand Up

Unlike the other orange bullseye pink label pressing Stand Up, this orange bullseye pink label pressing has Printed and made by Ernest J. Day & Co. Ltd., London W.11., on the back cover.

Another difference between this and the other orange bullseye pink label pressing Stand Up is that the whole type set on Side One is printed slightly higher on the label; this is particularly noticeable when you look at the word STEREO, but in fact all of the type set is higher than that seen in Stand Up. On Side Two, the only obvious difference between the 2 orange bullseye pink label pressings is that the word Produced is slightly further away from the spindle hole on this pressing than on Stand Up.
