It says in the description that it's German; is there some reason you doubt this?

At least the sleeve is, the "white" label looks a bit as if the original one has been removed - I've never seen such "White Label" German Capitol pressings

To be honest , I didn't notice that it stated German

And if anyne would have seen such a pressing, you would.  Now that I look closer it does apppear that it could simply be  a case of the label being removed; but why on earth would anyone want to do that, and how hard would it be?

The person that won this on Ebay, >>Marshall***<<  is now auctioning it off with a new minimum bid of 189 pounds.
 I sent him this note: 

>>the cover is obviously a German issue; It appears that the original labels have been washed off/removed from the vinyl, leaving the base coat of the label. Either you found them this way, or you removed them yourself but In any case, this is not, by any stretch of the imagination, a Test Pressing <<
