The stamped A in the runouts appears as the usual CBS Aston Clinton partially stamped symbol ⋀ or ∴

The runouts are etched (e.g. "VS - 554 - 12 - A1 ƱTOPIA"), except for the last two characters, which are usually a numeral and letter (e.g. "5A"), which are stamped.

There are two other 12"s released in the UK using the same catalogue # VS554-12, but pressed/lacquer cut by different plants:

* [url=http://www.discogs.com/release/12784265]pressed by EMI (Lacquer cut by Tony Bridge) tone[/url]
