Notes
Includes printed inner sleeveOn this edition the MainMan credit replaces the Titanic credit on the labels but there is no mention nor logo on the sleeve; additionally there is no HH price code.
This could be an interim pressing, similar to another possible The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars interim pressing, except this states 'Stereo' on the labels.
See also The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars with MainMan printed on sleeve/dark orange label - 1973 reissue.
