needs cleaning, comes in the german cover

This is presumably late 1974 UK pressing (aka 3rd press).
Here is the transitional variant for this pressing

The main differences from the previous issues:

1) The upper rim text begins with 'EMI RECORDS LTD.' (since about May 1974);
2) The inscription 'MADE IN GT. BRITAIN' is inlined with the lower rim text (at the end) under the circular bottom line;
3) The main background color of the label has a much more distinct lemon yellow shade compared to the previous ones.

On 1st July 1973, The Gramophone Company Ltd. was renamed to EMI Records Ltd. which is certainly influenced the changes in label design for all EMI labels. Now the upper rim text begins with 'EMI RECORDS LTD.' and the text 'MADE IN GT. BRITAIN' is shifted down to the end of the lower rim text. However, this didn't happen instantly, and the process of changing labels for Harvest was stretched out for about a year. The first album with an updated design was released in June 1974

Other main identifiers:

- Laminated gatefold sleeve with 'Printed and Made by Garrod & Lofthouse Ltd.' in most cases have an additional fine keyline box around the EMI and Harvest logos on the front of the sleeve. But the 1st sleeve variant with a single bold line around the logos is still valid.
- EMI plain paper inner sleeve with 'Patent Nos. 1125555' text and 'Made In Great Britain' text near the bottom on 1 side;
- Runouts: A2 / B1 (until about mid-1975);
- The boxed 'EMI' logo on labels (since about June 1971);
- Song listing in 2 lines on both sides (since about the second half of 1972);
- The â“… icon (under the 'Side A/B' indicator on labels) has the same size as the year '1970' to the right of it (since about December 1970 / January 1971).
