This version has plates originating at [l512061], with main matrix markings identical to those on [r=10074229]. The Allentown 'A' and 'AL' indicators have been scribbled out and replaced with "ƧON" inscriptions, seemingly suggesting a [l457750] pressing. However, the label font identifies this as an [l512061] pressing, suggesting that these stampers must have been sent back from [l457750] to [l512061] for this pressing.

The "RH" in the runouts is a very small, scribbly etching, the signature of [a270611].
