Limited edition of 20 000 copies with lenticular print on the front of the sleeve.
This is the initial release which had the image of Joh Bjelke-Petersen on the inner sleeve artwork. Another limited edition was inadvertently created when the band was forced to remove this image. Petersen was the subject of the album’s sixth track, “Nuclear Device (The Wizard of Aus)”. See The Raven for the version without the banned image and The Raven for the other version with parts of the original image (the map).
