Appendices: "Original OBI”, “G/F Cover", “Inner-Bag” & "Red Wax"
( INSERT is not originally issued )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1960’s ) of their masterpiece album, comin' with rare odeon red-wax. The disc is very rare red-wax, issued only for Japanese early press. The insert was not originally issued for this item.

And the top rim of each side of obi is different from the ordinary type of obi for this album. The top-rim of front side is curled into back side ( See photos ). The very first issue of this album was issued with this type of obi. Have you ever seen it?

It’s very hard to find this item with original obi even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/NM ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn right-edge. Light ring-wear with a light scratch line is on the back. It’s lightly stained with minor spots on upper portion of inside gate-fold. Short creases are on the spine-rims. Otherwise it has no tear, strip, dent & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There’re a few spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which can be rated as "NM". No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, we guarantee you.

INSERT: INSERT is not originally issued for this item.

INNER-BAG: VG, being creased in corners of each side. Otherwise no tear or split is on the outer-edges.
