For me it's an unofficial release. This is sloppy and I don't understand why it is mentionned on labels 'vitaphonic high fidelity' while it is a system used for film soundtrack: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vitaphone
Furthermore on front cover there's a typo on 'The Queen Is Dead'. There's no...

Thanks for the details. So does the girlfriend in a coma sleeve be green ?

I was just a little hurted that my information was not considered as interesting.
