Atom Heart Mother (back insert artwork)

I was looking at the cd re-issues of Atom Heart Mother and noticed some have a single cow and others have multiple cows. Which one replicates the original album from 1970? I used to have it on cassette so I never knew what the back artwork looked like. Which is the original or which cd version replicates the original? Does anyone know?

I believe the original back cover photograph has three cows in it.

My CD version is the '95 remaster and has the classic cow on the front of course, but a picture of the cow eating grass on the back. The three cows are on the back of the CD booklet. But the poster above me is probably right about the original.
And I think the original LP had the title written across the top of the front in cursive. Maybe that was just certain countrys' pressings??

Yeah, the writing isn't on the original UK album.

The 1st vinyl pressing in the U.S. had no writing at all on the front cover, just the one cow. The back cover has only the catalog # SKAO-382, with no barcode, and some very faint writing in the lower left corner, (manufactured by Capitol, etc), and the 3 cows. The gatefold has around 21 cows, with the pic being black & white, with quite a bit of info on the right flap, like album, artist, track listing, etc. If it was new in shrink-wrap, you'd have to look at the spine to see Pink Floyd/Atom Heart Mother, otherwise you'd think it was a buncha cows mooing, LOL.
