additional information
I believe first pressings used a black paper label with white type and second pressings used the silver injected moulded labels.

Some of these standard 7" pressings were also send out as promos; these included "Compliments" stickers and press releases. These were numbered in the late 900s, and so weren't first pressings and therefore had silver injected moulded labels.

Although part of a worldwide limited edition of 50,000 copies, enough were pressed to still make them plentiful today. The outer envelope sleeve is also extremely durable, so mint copies shouldn't be hard to find.

additional information
This cassette single has to revert back to a plastic case so it could carry the large fold-out colour inlay. Despite including grainy black-and-white live shots inside the inlay (to give the impression that they were shot at Barrowlands), it appears the inlays were printed and number-stamped in advance before the track listing was finalised - as the sleeve simply states that "Sides 1 And 2 Feature Live Tracks."

All the track information was printed on the cassette itself. Interestingly the cassette was titled "Live At Glasgow Barrowland" and not "Stand By Love."

Despite the limited edition tag, a large number of these cassettes were produced, and so mint copies do still surface from time to time.

A separate press release was produced for this cassette single.
