Also check whether the plug is on the back cover.   There are three
types of cover 1) wrongly wired plug 2) plug covered by a red sticker
saying "do not remove" (this version is fairly rare now) 3) no plug at
all - this was the re-issue of the cover after all the controversy and
*should* therefore be the most common of the three versions.

The original issue also had the option of picking up the first Pete
Frame Hawkwind family tree as a poster but any originals of these have
long, long vanished I fear since I've never seen one.   You can buy the
book of family trees tho' now - which is thoroughly entertaining.

hmmm - around 14.00 pounds?   I'd say you needed the poster along with
this to make it worthwhile at that price.    Still, it is the only early
album not to be on CD (and never to be if I remember Brock's comments
from somewhere or another about this possibility).

Is this the original version with the fold out cover and psychedelic
orange and yellow inner sleeves?

I think this also came out in two colours - purple and gold (for the
gatefold) and purple and red with the poster - but I can't be sure 'cos
I haven't got the poster  8-(
