    Hasn't anyone noticed the modified "s" on the Saxon logo on the back cover of the Carrere/Atlantic CAR 38-126 US vinyl release??? The image has yet to be posted here on Discogs, but it does exist. Locate a copy- on eBay perhaps- with a "large white promo sticker" on the front cover, flip it over and you will see this modification. Given all the Saxon aficionados on this site, I find it hard to believe this anomaly has not been mentioned. [EDIT: Back cover image posted 2018-12-14.]
