As far as I know, there are at least 8 versions of the Yugoslavia vinyl pressing of Born In The U.S.A. They all have the same catalog number, and they all seem to have the same front sleeve with a printed hype box (not a sticker). The main differences in the labels are the color, the position of the title and artist name, the text on the left side, and the text on the right side. There are many more differences, like in the text under the track list, the text around the labels, and the font.
