- The track on the a-side is visibly longer than the one on the b-side.
- The recordings are in mono and play at 45 rpm.
- The cover consists of a b/w computer print on plain paper and does not enfold the flexi in full, so that the vinyl colour is visible.
- Other colours than the clear one shown here have so far not been traced.
- Neither on the cover nor on the label is any note of the second track on Side B of the flexi,
- while the catalogue# is identical with the one of the standard Possession flexi.

- The scan of the a-side shows two rings of grooves. The inner ring appears darker and has no grooves on the opposite site.
- The outer ring is brighter as the grooves of the short version on the backside shadow the inner ring.
- The scan of Side B looks similar but the contrast of the rings differs since the long version of the song is not on the backside.
