Tom Waits / Rain Dogs
Japan Orig. PROMO LP


Island R25D – 2017

Appendices: "A Fold-Out Insert + OBI" & “Promo White Label”
( SAMPLE STICKER is missing )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original PROMO copy ( released in 1985 ) of his original album, comin' with rare obi + insert. In this edition, obi is not separate from the insert, but issued as integrated “one” ( See photo ). The label of disc is beautiful in white for promotional use, though the sample sticker in left bottom corner of back-cover is missing ( stripped off…See photo ). It’s hard to find this item even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G+/NM ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover has a strip-mark of sample sticker in left bottom corner on the back side. Black handwriting in the shape of “leg” is on the strip-mark ( See photo ). Minor creases are on the spine-rims. It’s clean on the front. Otherwise it has none of any tear, edge-wear, ring-wear, dent, stain...OK.

DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. A few minor spots are on the label of Side A. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch, hairline & spindle-mark on each label, which can be rated as "NM". No flaw on the groove & no spindle-mark on the label …very clean disc, we guarantee you.

OBI + INSERT: G, being wrinkled in the “obi” portion, with a short tear in the middle. It’s lightly yellowed on the center-fold inside pages.
