Note: I was told years ago by an individual who possessed the Master Plates for the record, Original Pressing included 1000 Copies on Black & 200 Copies of the Picture Disc were made. This is a believable quantity for average small run pressings. There is another source Claiming 500 In black and only 50 Picture Disc pressed. I was also told by this individual that the amount of Picture Discs Manufactured was higher, but due to bad pressing & peeling; the majority were scrapped. So The actual Amount in circulation is debatable.
