Chris, It was probably a repress. They apparently bought the rights to the disc from Nimbus. It would be more difficult to re-label an already labeled disc as it would raise questions as to why you were doing this. I know for a fact that we ran out of Vol 5 and there were no discs pressed that had no labels. You are right. Discs should have certain things on the label to inform the consumer as to: 1. What system it runs on; 2. Whether it is a repress of an older disc; 3. Whether the docs are on the disc; 4. Date of publication; 5. Who published it. Cheers, John
