Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in 1971 ) of their original album, coming with complete appendices. 6 page booklet is with “English lyrics and liner notes” and “Photos of each member”. The insert is with album covers of various artists belonging to the record company ( Liberty Japan ) in those days. The disc is black. It’s hard to find this item even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: EX/EX ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is excellent in condition, except for partly worn corners, spine, right-edge & lightly other outer edges. The right bottom-rim inside gate-fold is lightly scraped. A minor spot is in the middle of top-rim inside gate-fold. It’s clean on the front, back & totally inside. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, strip, dent & writing…OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. A light scuff line is on Side B-1. There’re some spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has otherwise none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+". Though there’re slight marks on each side, they’re not flaw but just “misprint”.

OBI: G, being rippled on the surface of each side, while being split in the top-edge.

INSERT: VG, being slightly rippled and tanned on the surface of each side, while being lightly creased in the left bottom-rim.

INNER SLEEVE: G+, being rippled with ring-crease on the surface of each side. Otherwise no tear or split on outer edges.
