Believe this famous dubwise-lp issued in seventies on pre and reprinted (bootlegs?) at least once in France or Spain?
Are these later releases also labelled Ghetto Rockers-Warrika Dub-Prelp or are theys just blank?
Does anyone know how to recognise the original from later ones, by matrix on run-out of vinyl for example?

thanks, Capt

On the reissues the information on the label is printed (even of it looks written). On the originals I think the info was handwritten.

Ites Capt,
the original has a label with a stamplike printing of the title alone and has the matrix # PRE-LP 1.
The 'pirate'vinyl reissue coming from france some years ago has a blank label and an industrial matrix like AE 13471.
To take this one step further let me tell you that Island/Universal have released the Dub in original style (and beautifully remastered from the original master tapes) officially on cd in 2004....BUT ONLY IN JAPAN !!! (UICY-3792).
