Picked up a sealed copy of this LP recently, my favorite by the Moody Blues. It was so perfect I was hesitant to open it but decided to do so and play it through. I was happily surprised to find it is a '68 original and not one of the many reissues through the 70s (seller told me they thought it was 70s, which is why I paid just $20 for it). Beautiful flat very quiet vinyl, Bell Sound and sf in the dead wax, and a great London inner sleeve. It's like opening up a time capsule, a really nice addition to my collection.

I have an odd version of this, I believe. The inside gatefold is upside down compared to the outside cover art. Is this the way its supposed to be or is this odd?
