The Japanese version of LABYRINTH: The Photo Album is nearly identical to both the American and British versions. The major differences are the front and back covers are very different from the English language versions. Inside the Japanese covers, there are a few blue and white photos which were not present in the UK and US editions.

     

Another difference, again, is the type of paper used. Henry Holt and Co. published both the American and Japanese editions. While the US pages are very glossy and the color very rich - much like a magazine's shiny pages, the Japanese pages have more of a matte finish. It is still far superior to the British version which is much duller and often very blurry.

     

If anyone reads Japanese and would like to translate the notes on the inside cover, I'll post a close-up of the text. You'll have my eternal gratitude!
