    Sleeve looks like it could have been the front cover of a 2000 AD magazine.

      As with the paper sleeve variant (see comment re extra etching):
      The miscellaneous #'s after the main matrices are simply 'stamper' numbers. It is doubtful if the A-2U and B-2 are complete but probably these extra numbers (at 9 o'clock and 3 o'clock) have not been noticed).. The Utopia lyre symbol almost certainly will be there on the 1st pressings.

        I once owned a copy of this 7" which had 'Demo record. Not for sale' (wording may have varied slightly) stamped on the centre of the label, but came in a standard (card) picture sleeve and bore the same cat # as the standard first pressing.
