Can someone advise which cover actually accompanied the 1st Jamaican pressing?

I know the sand writing cover is 1967 UK press. I wonder if the yellow cover with the ribbon came before or after the one where John Hold is sitting on air :)

yellow cover is CD version. Maybe you can guess the answer yourself?

Sammy,

With all due respect, I wouldn't ask the question if the answer was that obvious....

Hi Vlad

See your dimemma

There is this one too

Although this one on popsike actually states "original 1st pressing"

I guess I`ve not helped much and just caused more confusion

Rootsman,

Indeed, but at least you don't assume that artworks used on CDs are by default the most recent ;)
