DJM FP - 80211

Appendices: “Original OBI”, “Textured G/F Cover”, Booklet", “Insert” & “Red Wax”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1971 ) of his 3rd album, coming with complete appendices. The disc is very rare red-wax, issued only for Japanese 1st pressing. The gate-fold cover is textured on its surface of each side. It’s hard to find this album in complete shape even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: EX+/VG ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is excellent in condition, except for lightly creased & discolored spine-edge. It’s clean on each side. Otherwise it has no tear, edge-wear, ring-wear, dent, strip, stain & writing...fine in shape.

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has three slight scratches with a hairline on Side A-5 ( inaudible each ). A few slight scuffs are on each side. There’re some spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any serious flaw ( such as deep scratch ), which is to be rated as "VG”. Flaws are not many, but just several on Side A and a few on Side B.

OBI: G+, being lightly creased with spots in places on the surface of back. A supply-tag is in the top of back. It's partly torn in right top edge.

INSERT: VG, being lightly creased on its surfaces of each side.

BOOKLET: VG, being lightly creased with minor spots on its surfaces of each page.
