This US release is the first release on LP of The Man Who Sold the World. It was only released in two countries - US and Japan (SFX-7345) - with this original cover. The building in the background is the Cane Hill Hospital where David Bowie's half-brother Terry was a patient.
The album was released in a further three countries on the Mercury label - Germany (David Bowie - The Man Who Sold The World) in a large circular fold-out cover and the United Kingdom and Australia with a picture of David reclining in a dress. This latter cover is the one used on contemporary releases.
The US Mercury album was counterfeited (see David Bowie - The Man Who Sold The World) in the early 1970s after Bowie became popular. It was possible for a potential buyer to choose between the official RCA reissue (in yet another cover, see David Bowie - The Man Who Sold The World) and the widely distributed counterfeit.
The following visual indicators can be used to confirm an original US Mercury LP: • The matrices in the runout (the space between the label and the grooves) are machine stamped (the counterfeits are hand etched). • The space between the final lyric line of The Supermen and the cartoon bubble "Oh By Jingo" on the back cover is approximately the height of a line of text, while on the counterfeits the space is notably wider.
There are other differences, though these can be more easily seen and described in a side-by-side comparison. Barcode and Other Identifiers • Rights Society: ASCAP • Matrix / Runout (Side A, Runout, Stamped): SR 61325-A- M2 • Matrix / Runout (Side B, Runout, Stamped): SR 61325-B- M1
