First pressing with partially stamped matrix numbers, silver ink on matte black paper labels with horizontal lines that don't reach completely to edges of labels.
In conversation with Lenny Kaye, he stated that the *only* way to determine an original vs reissue is that the originals are on thick vinyl that appears grey on the thick ridge of the record. It is very easy to spot this on a genuine copy.
