3. Elektra USA 1985, green vinyl, album version with green "Title" sticker (ED 5042) 
   Notes;
   This record is presssed on "Glow In The Dark" green vinyl, released early 1985
   The "Friday Morning" sticker is the normal version, the "Title" sticker is much rarer and just lists the band name & song title
   Sleeves for both records are clear plastic "Envelope" covers, bootleg copies have regular clear covers
   Several copies do not have stickers at all, this is because poor quality glue was used to stick them to the covers, over the years the stickers start to peel off and many are lost
   Numerous un-stickered copies exist, these copies are worth at least 30% - 35% less then a stickered copy
   These un-stickered copies are not a different pressing as they are incomplete
   
   
4. Elektra USA 1985, album version with red "Friday Morning" sticker & Elektra cover, `SP` version (ED 5044)
   
   
5. Elektra USA 1985, album version with red "Friday Morning" sticker & Elektra cover, `AR` version (ED 5044) 
   Notes;
   1st pressings have ST-ED-5044-A-SP on the label
   2nd pressings have ST-ED-5044-A-AR, there is little or no difference in value
   One known SP copy has one of the labels offset slightly although the text is centred correctly

   The vinyl is a "marbled bluey/green" color although at least two color variants exist (pictured)
