Probably the end of a vinyl print run, if it irritates you - never ever 
buy any jamaican pressed vinyl, ever....

Some of the things I've had - off-center labels encroaching into the 
vinyl (so the grooves are unplayable) bits of wood (at least it looks 
like wood) in the vinyl, labels on the wrong side, track listing wrong 
(extra tracks on the vinyl unaccounted for), track list on label doesn't 
agree with what's on the sleeve or in the worst case, right sleeve, 
right label, wrong record... but you know what - it's still great.

consider yourself lucky ;)
