This release features the original album artwork (showing Robert Williams' painting of a girl being raped by robots), which was later withdrawn and replaced with a tattoo-styled, skulls-and-crossbones motif.

There is another very similar release which included a sheet of Japanese peel-off stickers (see Appetite For Destruction).

Issued in a regular cardboard sleeve embossed with the Warner 'W' logo. Some copies feature a white sticker with black text reading "CONTAINS LYRICS WHICH SOME PEOPLE MAY FIND OFFENSIVE". Some copies also feature a black sticker with red and white text reading "INCLUDES THE SINGLES SWEET CHILD O'MINE AND WELCOME TO THE JUNGLE".

Includes a printed inner-sleeve with lyrics, credits and photographs of the band members. Some copies includes a white Guns N Roses Appetite For Destruction sticker (924 148-1).

All runouts are stamped except the few characters at the end of the matrix strings, which are hand-etched.
