Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in 1968 ) of their original album, comin' with very rare red wax. The disc is beautiful red wax, issued only for Japanese early pressing. The cover is thin gate-fold, showing “Japanese liner notes” & “Photos of members” inside, which is different from UK copy. Enclosed insert is with “English lyrics”. Though obi is missing, it’s still hard to find this item with red wax even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
Condition: G+/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )
COVER: Cover is partly worn on corners, top, bottom & right-edge. It’s lightly tanned inside gate-fold. Light ring-wear is on the back. Minor creases are around rims of outside. Light stain-mark is on the right bottom corner of front & left bottom corner of back side. Inside gate-fold, brown stain-mark is on its left side ( mainly on its left bottom corner…See photo ). Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.
DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. It has a few slight scuffs on each side. There’re some spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+".
