    Is that the original one?

    In Canada, there wasn't the pink "corner" (on a round circle ), and I seem to remember the boat quarter was also the same green-ocre background
    my music collection increased tenfolds when I switched from drug-addicts to complete nutcases.

    I'm surprised no one has posted the Dark Horse label.

    Can't get the image to post.

    Not sure, to be honest. But it's the earliest one I've got on some of my 60s Sinatra LPs and one Sammy Davis JR LP.

    Well both of those sound older than the earliest Reprise records I owned (JHE and Neil Young), so maybe yes

    ^Possibly the most bootleggy looking design ever used on a theoretically legit label. I think the first time I ever saw it was on an Art Ensemble of Chicago reissue, where it looked particularly out of place.
