Unlike any other target disc, Around the World was packaged in a cardboard picture
cover, housed in a unique longbox, at least for the US market. Above is the front
of the picture sleeve.


Above is the back cover of the picture sleeve, which reads, "Made in U.S.A."
No variations are known.


This is the front of the longbox, with the back flap up.
This same packaging was used for the West German pressings of this title.
See the separate listing.


This is the inside of the unfolded longbox. Note the picture sleeve in the middle.


This is the back of the unfolded longbox.

Notes: This disc is not easy to track down. Especially in the original packaging,
especially in nice condition. The cardboard packaging is very susceptible to wear.
Plus, many original owners cut down the longbox to fit into a jewel box.
Expect to pay in excess of $25 for a nice complete longbox.


This custom label Japanese pressing can also be found housed in the cardboard
packaging, so be sure to check the disc before buying.
