Ten BasketBall Picture LP - How to recognize the PIRATED one

I finally cathed on of the "new" PIRATED lps you can see on eBay.

I've taken some pictures to show some small differences:

1. Magenta ink on vinyl is clearer on the pirated version.

2. Front plastic black and white band print has very bad quality (top is the legit one)
Image

3. Plastic folder also opens from the right side BUT without the semi circular cut
Image

Please add any other differences you might find.

There is/was also a thread in the message pit:

I wanted to help/warn people that they have bought a fake copy.

The printing of the fake is really bad:

The catalog number is grey (of the bad printing) and the PX too. It should be purple.

Here is also a good comparison:

It's really sad to see that there are so many fakes out there.
