This is an original UK pressing without country of origin printed on the sleeves or labels. The records are housed in printed inner sleeves that contain album lyrics and credits. The labels have the Vertigo swirl design on the 1st and 3rd sides. Sleeves are (probably?) the same as in the Dutch pressing. Sleeves also have catalog numbers corresponding to each record: 510 027-1 and 510-028-1 printed on lyric side.
