I notice the copy of Quicksand is a much later release using the "Arrow" Design. This can happen with some of the earlier numbered "Badge" Design Originals, pressed sometime after the Initial release period and the later deisign is being used.

Many different pressing plants were involved, I know that these are DEMOs but Stock Copies are also available from these pressing plants. East Coast - DEMO West Coast Monarch - DEMO This is the Later "Arrow" Design West Coast Monarch press did use the "Badge" Design for a longer period but did change to the "Arrow" Design The following looks like a test run during transition between designs, I haven't seen another. Steve has a copy of this nice Rarity only a couple of copies seen of "Festival Time" on a "West Coast" Badge Design. Scan courtesy of Steve Johntson
