Other notes:
"53" printed in label rim text denotes a Hauppauge Record Manufacturing Ltd. pressing.
Similar to [r=1102253], but "26" does not appear beneath "SIDE A" on label.
Similar to [r=6800661], but with "501" printed next to barcode on upper-right-hand corner.
Track listings are symmetrically listed (centered) on back cover.
Runout information is etched, except for "MASTERDISK", which is stamped.

Note that the credit for cover photo ([a272837]) is likely a mis-credit, since the cover photo used (the "ducks" cover) almost certainly comes from the same sessions that produced the inner sleeve photo on [r=2636195], which is credited to [a2507191].

Purchased at AAFES base exchange, Kadena A.F.B., Okinawa, Japan, stationed here, Jan. 1983 - Aug. 1985.
