Notes

This new Japanese edition was released by WEA who had just purchased the rights to the complete Smiths catalogue the year before. It was modelled on its European counterpart and the packaging is superior to that of the Victor releases. It finally shows the cd artwork on the front which was not the case with the earlier Victor compact discs. Unlike its European counterpart, the Japanese cd has the barcode on the back of the obi instead of the back of the cd tray inlay. The obi is light blue-green and beige with a blue "Smiths Original Catalogue" crest common to all re-releases in the series. Its back covers the complete backspace and displays over a beige background "The Smiths Original Catalogue", an illustrated list of the eight albums being reissued by WEA. The disc is purple/maroon with grey text. The cd tray is made of white plastic. Information about the booklet is needed. Some copies included a mail-in card to order t-shirts and caps.
