Gatefold jacket.
Catalog # PJ-10117 on front and inside left of jacket. Catalog # ST-20117 on jacket spine, front and inside left, and on center labels.
Inclusion of catalog # PJ-10117 shows LP available as mono.
☆ in runout is stamped irregularly at angle. May indicate Capitol Los Angeles pressing, although I have also seen on early Columbia pressings.
