These are the only seven disc variations that I know of for this target CD.


Front cover of the eight-page booklet (m), (n) and (o).
Page seven states "Manufactured by PolyGram in Hanover,
Weat Germany
Printed in West Germany"


Rear tray insert "Printed in West Germany" with barcode, with "9" before the catalog number on the wings (w).
I found disc variation (a) with this rear tray card.
I had to brighten the scan considerably to try to make the "Printed in West
Germany" stand out. In reality, the colors look more like the inlay below.


Rear tray insert "Printed in West Germany" with barcode, without "9" before catalog
number on wings (x). The catalog numbers are also different on the inside of the tray inlay.
For the record, I found disc variations (b), (c) and (d) with this "9"-less tray card.
Your results may vary.


Rear tray insert, "Printed in West Germany" with 256 952 catalog number (y). No barcode.
All three international versions (e), (f) and (g) can be found with this back inlay.
The PDO variation can also sometimes be found with "Alsdorf" paper inserts (z), not pictured.

Disc and paper insert combinations summary:
(a) + (m) + (w)
(b) + (m) + (x)
(c) + (m) + (x)
(d) + (m) + (x)
(e) + (n) + (y)
(f) + (n) + (y)
(g) + (n) + (y)
(g) + (o) + (z)

Notes: This disc is uncommon, and will take some searching. The international
version is slightly harder to find.
