I think we have to assume that first pressings with all the correct matrix info came in embossed or non-embossed sleeves when first released. The Embossed sleeves are obviously more desirable and command higher prices.

If the matrix run-out info matches the release details then you have a 2nd pressing with the cream labels pressed in August 1989 at the DFI pressing plant.

My research tells me there are basically 2 cuts from 1989 issued in the UK.

The first cut... See full review
