i am wondering for a while why the UK Sticky is different from the US cover.
the " sticky fingers" stamp is another stamp.
and on the official promo poster (the guys holding up the album sleeve) the have used yet another version.
it has the US stamp, but on the other side.

did anybody see that version else were, or does some one have this one. Ive been looking for it for some time

The rubber stamps are different because the stamps themselves were created locally by the people who got the album graphics ready for print. As to why they did it that way, I suspect it because the cover concept and art was by Andy Warhol, whose working methods tended to be extremely hands-off.
