This is a repress. Based on information obtained from the son of the late conductor Ben van den Boom (Ben's son is the white boy on the front cover), sales of the first pressing went better than expected and after the first batch sold out, a second run was pressed shortly after the first batch sold out. The represses differ slightly from the first pressing: the letter font used for the front cover is not the same, a detail that becomes clear when scrutinized carefully. The labels differ, too: if one compares the labels one by one, it's clear the the letter font used for the label name "SPECIAL" is printed slightly higher on the label and in bold. The represses also contain a translation of the lyrics: a simple page, printed on both sides, with the conductor's personal stamp on it [see images] - Van den Boom's son was not able to confirm if those translated lyrics sheets are also part of the first pressing.
