Not sure about s www symbol,but the original 60s first press has the Large Archer stamp as apposed to the small archer on the 70s reissue. This has always been the case. The original first press by the way is quite tough to obtain. Chris. 

Cheers ,the one I've got must be something else coz it ain't got an archer stamp large or small just this three m's or w's in a design one on its side with one above the other

The one you have with no Archer stamp, but has the 3 www's is an early 70's USA repress. 

This one was supposed to have been done with Lorraine Chandlers involvement. Not sure how true that is.

All you really need to know is that the original demo and original issue have a Large ARCHER stamp.   (Not an small archer that runs downhill etc)

Any copy without the large ARCHER, is not an original first issue.
