Cat#: ECM 1022 ST on front cover (down right), back cover (top right), spine and center labels.
There exist copies with a second cat#: 2301 022 on a tiny sticker on front cover (top right) which appeared from 1976 with the introduction of the label code, which is printed on the back of the cover at the bottom left (LC 2516).
This cat# appears only there, nowhere else.
These were probably remaining copies from ECM selfdistribution with the cat# of the new distributor on sticker.
