Notes

ⓤ = Pressed by United Record Pressing
 via
Wes Garland at Nashville Record Productions (WG/NRP)

Disc Labels have NO grey/black tint on the words "The Black Album" unlike the OG 2003 press seen here:
https://www.discogs.com/Jay-Z-The-Black-Album/release/259432

Additionally, the circular text wrapping around the label has a slightly different sized font as you can see the letter spacing does not match the OG cut but the words do.
No hype stickers on unopened shrink. Unlabeled inner sleeve. Includes lyric pull out.
