OK ... coolest thing ever. They replicated the laser hologram design on the PT disc. Classy.

Allan, was the laser hologram on all the PT albums or just in certain countries? someone mentioned to me that the Hologram was Canada only (along with Supertramp, Split Ends and one other group on A&M at the time).

Everywhere as far as I know. The USA had it for sure, and I'd have to check my Japanese copy but I'm 99% sure it had it too. There were so many made it's very common even if it was a handful of countries. Maybe some subs in certain areas didn't get it, but I would assume major countries/pressings got it at least on the first run.

The hologram isn't on the Nautilus pressing (audiophile version), and I'm not sure about the Canadian only audiophile version. I'd have to dig it out.

Warning to those only buying for sound quality: PT and Cornerstone are NOT remastered. They both have their 1993 POCM catalog number around the hub of the center of those two discs. The rest appear to be all new masters.
