Both Mono and Stereo LP’s of Flowers export version can be found with grooved and non-grooved labels. This indicates that mono LP’s were pressed for export up to the end on the 60’s.

No variations are existing apart from the catalogue number being different for Mono and Stereo LP’s.

No variations on the Mono & Stereo texts. Pictured here are Mono and Stereo covers.

All covers have the same Printed By text on the back cover.
“Printed in England by Robert Stace.”
No variations are known to exist.

I have found three slightly different pairs of labels on the Mono LP. The changes are minor in between the versions, but it still indicates that labels were ordered at least three times from the supplier. That would also indicate that at least three pressings were made in between 1967 and 1969.
