This seems to be the earliest possible issue of this album, with erroneously wrong ('Kassner Music' instead of 'Davray/Carlin') publishing credit for B6 and '℗ 1973 RCA Limited' instead of '℗ 1973 RCA Records' on labels. Otherwise similar to Pinups.
First catalogue number on cover back, 2nd on cover spine and labels, 3rd in parentheses on cover spine. 'Stereo' on labels after side identification.
This album is called Pinups A MainMan Production ℗ 1973 RCA Limited
