In view of the recent topic I started on the easily solved picture puzzle
I have just spotted that another copy of a Japanese single has come up on ebay
I did display it before during an earlier auction but thought it well worth repeating

That's the Japanese "Sundown" single! I believe so because in the corner (unless it's the "A" side)it says "Too Late For Prayin'". Now that would be cool,a GL 45 with an actual pic. sleeve!

Actually B it seems to me that the US Market for some reason cannot be considered worth the trouble of producing picture sleeves
for single records, unlike Japan as evidenced by the Sundown single I showed above and the Spanish Market for which a new ebay
auction today has this sleeve for RATR and TWOTEF:-

I can't remember about the UK Market. But I still have the very first picture sleeve 45 that I ever saw a Canadian issue in fact:-

Yes, that is the Japanese version of Sundown
Underneath the first line says "Sundown" and in the corner does say Too Late For Prayin'. Real rare item!!
