| Third US pressing with 8 tracks listed and embossed cover. Some copies included a poster. Green WB shield center labels with correct album title and "After Forever" as track A2, credited to "Iommi-Ward-Osbourne-Butler". The word "Stereo" appears in bold at bottom, just above rim text and under "(P) 1971" Center label typeset is very similar to other early reissues that display "(P) 1971" below the track titles (see r6117065 [url=http://www.discogs.com/Black-Sabbath-Master-Of-Reality/release/6117065]here[/url] and r11466086 [url=http://www.discogs.com/Black-Sabbath-Master-Of-Reality/release/11466086]here[/url]), but this version's pressing rings would suggest a Columbia/Pitman pressing. |
