All runouts etched, except for 'VAN GELDER', which is stamped.
From history:
This is actually an unmarked SQ Quadraphonic version, per this thread on QuadraphonicQuad.com. This is denoted by the "SQ" legend on the labels, and in the deadwax.
This also means it was a 2nd pressing, as the original pressing had separate Stereo and Quad issues; second pressings came after the separate Quad version was deleted from the catalog and Quad stampers were used for the subsequent pressings.
