An 8 page booklet is incorporated into the gatefold sleeve, and not as a separate item as in some other releases.
Also, unusually for gatefold sleeves, the record is removed from the centre inside of the gatefold ie you have to open the whole thing like a book in order to get the record out.

Advertised as a new release in "Twenty-seven more Decca-group stereo LP records...", Gramophone magazine, November 1958.
