Bob Dylan – Bringing It All Back Home

There were not one, but two different Australian releases of Bringing It All Back Home with the Allan's logo on the record labels. Both have the same sleeve but different labels. The rear sleeve has two folded-over flaps, although it looks like there are three - this is because of the line on the right where the front laminate finishes. The sleeve has the classic "STEREO"/arrows/"360 SOUND" logo at front top centre, instead of the "STEREO/CAN ALSO BE PLAYED ON MONO EQUIPMENT" logo.

First label variant: On both sides the Allan's logo is bigger so there is less space between this logo and the centre CBS logo and the text elements above and below.

Second label variant: On both sides there is a smaller Allan's logo so the space between the logo, the central CBS logo and the text elements above and below is bigger. This second copy is a sampler record with a promo stamp on side 2 (there is no promo stamp on the second sleeve).

The records of both label variants have identical stamped matrix numbers: Side 1 - MX145943 SBP233213-1, Side 2 - MX145944 SBP233213-2.

[[Just a quick heads-up...Note: the one pictured is NOT the first Aussie stereo pressing...there was an earlier one on darker orange labels, with a wide deep groove...and the label type-setting has quite a few differences (italic and non-italic...and fonts as well). The Allan's logo box was smaller and rectangular, too. This is the one referred to here as the 'Second Label Variant', which is, in fact, the first pressing. This first pressing also came with a large insert adverting other folk releases available from 'The Australian Record Co." who manufactured and distributed CBS here in Australia at that time. I'll it separately, with some pix soon. The one I have was bought by an Aussie folk-singer friend on the SAME day it was released. And there's a story that goes with that.]]
