Appendices: "Original OBI”, “G/F Cover", "Inner-Bag", "Booklet", "Gold Wax" & "Big Poster"
( STICKER is missing )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1973 ) of their original album, comin' with many appendices. The enclosed poster was issued only for Japanese 1st pressing of this album, which rarely appears in the market. The disc is beautiful in gold, issued only for its 1st press. The booklet shows "Japanese description", "English & Japanese lyrics" and "Photos of members". Though the sticker is missing, it’s still hard to find this item even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G+/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is lightly scraped & scratched with ring-wear on the surface of each side, as usual with Japanese 1st press of this album. It’s partly worn on the corners, spine, right-edge & lightly other outer-edges. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip, stain & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. There’re many spindle-marks with minor spots on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+". No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, I guarantee you.

OBI: VG, being lightly creased and stained on the surface of back. The right bottom corner is torn a little. A supply-tag is attached to the top of back.

BOOKLET: G+, being creased in places on the surface of each page. The spine-edge is partly worn.

INNER-BAG: G, being creased with ring-crease on the surface of each side. The bottom-edge & rims are taped in 3 portions.

POSTER: POSTER is still unused without pin-hole at corners. It’s creased in places on the surface of each side.

STICKER: STICKER is missing.
