12 pp booklet with Karajan/Philharmonia chronology & liner notes in English, German & French.
Labelled 'Stereo' on back cover, but 'Mono' on disc label. It is definitely stereo. There's also a note at lower right on the back cover about being remastered from original metalwork and 78s at Abbey Road, but this seems likely a general notice for the 'London Years' in the series, which span 1948-1960.
