VAN GELDER stamp is PRESENT in runout unlike Midnight Creeper. This pressing also has an approximately 30mm pressing ring around the spindle hole on both sides (see label photos).

The "114" in the runouts points to All Disc Records, Inc., but in this case not as the presser, as the pressing ring does not match All Disc pressings. This means that All Disc Records provided the metal parts they had used to some other pressing plant, possibly Southern Plastics (according to LondonJazzCollector).

Also, gatefold inner left panel has no company/address under the photos for Alligator Boogaloo and Mr. Shing-A-Ling (see images).
