Usually there is tiny, tiny printing around the hole in the centre. It's

can be no label printing on the one face.
I'm assuming that the label on the front you are referring to is on the
case or cover of the disk....


I guess "strips" would be a better word to use than label. All the
discs have two seperate 1/8" completely circular strips containing the
title, side, running time, region, studio and copyright info. Side A
strip is 1/2" from center hole, side B strip is 1/8" from center hole.
The obverse side of the disc has no strips or information but does
have numbers impressed directly upon the disc. I suspect the corrupted
3 disc boxed set (Kojak: Season One) purchased on eBay might be a
pirated copy from Asia.
