The one shown in Discos: https://www.discogs.com/ja/The-Rolling-Stones-Through-The-Past-Darkly-Big-Hits-Vol-2/release/4686649

The Discogs copy’s price is JPY2300, which is the 2nd press. 1st press OBI is in red, while 2nd press ( JPY2300 ) is in red & white.

Of course, our copy with red obi ( JPY2000 ) is absolutely 1st press.
It’s very hard to find Japanese original copy of this album with obi even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
