Both the inner sleeve and poster are in very good shape. I haven't been able to pin down these particulare dead wax inscriptions. If anyone can help that would be great. -
One of the strongest Side 1s ever, if the album carried on with tracks of the same quality this would be on the level of Born to Run. -
Picked up in $1 box at local record shop. Beautiful pressing and album - great memories listening to Seger with my Dad back in the 70's and 80's. Pressing nearly flawless....sounds like an audiophile/Mofi recording. Reminder that the dollar bins often have some outstanding values!

My release is etched as follows, can't seem to find this version with the side A:
Matrix / Runout (Side A) Etched: sw-1-11698 F.10 #2 Wally with stamped 0 and Mastered by Capitol
Matrix / Runout (Side B) Etched: sb sw-2-11698 F.2 #1 with stamped 0 and Mastered by Capitol -

My release is etched as follows. Thoughts?
Matrix / Runout (Side A - Etched, variant 3): SW-1-11698 F-25 #8 •-------◄ Wally
Matrix / Runout (Side B - Etched, variant 3): SW-2-11698 G38 #3 -
Could help locating one if someone has seen it.
label SW-11698, SW-11698
Side A Sw-1-1-11698 F12 #7. Stamped is Mastered by Capitol in the outer ring 0
Side B Sw-2-11698-C 33 #3 Semr in cursive then stamp Mastered By Capitol and a 0 -
Variant 3's A side is similar to the other 2 but the B is radically different. Need confirmation if this just a variant or an entirely different release. -
