      Following up PJsoundguy - our version is the German pressing as above which was shipped out to the UK. Within is the poster and on the back is a barcode sticker which has been overlaid on top of the printed cover barcode. The catalogue # printed at the bottom of the sticker is 'K 7819301 W'. There is no 'Poster...' cover sticker nor any sign there ever was one.
