Notes

Pirate version of Closer.

First Category on sleeve (spine and back cover), 2nd on labels, 3rd from runouts.

The outer sleeve and the labels look the same as the official 1980 Factory UK vinyl release.
This edition has a frontcover with the picture in black & purple instead of black & white!

Includes single sheet insert with printing on both sides, one side has the song lyrics.

Available on 3 marbled green vinyl editions : turquoise (this), pale and olive green.

Probably from Germany.

The printing company on the insert was taken from the UK/Euro remastered LP edition and is of course fake too.

Barcode and Other Identifiers

• Matrix / Runout (Runout side A (Hand etched)): JDC 02 SIDE -A-
• Matrix / Runout (Runout side B (Hand etched)): JDC 02 SIDE -B-
