The front has the band name embossed at a slightly jaunty angle, with 'Damned' being in all upper case, as though a pastiche of the Beatles' 'White Album.'Picture/lyric inner sleeve. Side opening, die cut thumb section. No credits.
White and blue labels with red Big Beat logo.
Some copies came with a full colour 40cm x 56cm folded poster.
