First press with "Version 4" gatefold sleeve with all white text and the print credit centered. Featuring the controversial image (censored by some outlets at the time) of naked ladies on front/back. Cover spread has 'unwrapped/floating' gloss laminate applied, matt print areas left exposed at the two cut edges where the albums insert. Hendrix portrait on right-hand side (Back cover behind it). Small sepia images of Redding & Mitchell on left (Front cover behind it). Discs in poly-lined white paper punch-hole sleeves. "Patent no 800513 & 973939" "Made in England" Produced in auto-coupled sequence Side A/D and B/C : Disc 1: 613008 Side A; Cat# (613008 A) [inverted over 613008] Disc 1: 613008 Side D; Cat# (613008 B) [inverted over 613008] Disc 2: 613009 Side B; Cat# (613009 A) [inverted over 613009] Disc 2: 613009 Side C; Cat# (613008 B) [inverted over 613009] Defect in matrix stamping on this early issue, altered by hand. - Label A and D are similar - Label B and C are different. The text beginning with "ELECTRIC LADYLAND" is very close to the center. The text seems to have moved up. SIDE B and side C are not printed below ST 33 but nearly on left side. Number on side C is different as 613009 B has been added with hand and the machine stamped number is completly scratched except //1. Titles: This UK issue has no suffix to "Come On", "The" is prefixed to "Burning Of The Midnight Lamp" and "Cross Town" appears as two words.
