Velvet Underground & Nico / Same Title
Japan Audiophile Edition LP


Verve 18MM 0526

Appendices: "Green OBI", "G/F Cover w/ Banana Sticker" & "Insert"

Description: This is scarce Japanese Audiophile edition copy ( released in 1986 ) of their legendary 1st album, comin' with complete appendices. The "Peel Slowly / Banana Sticker" is still on the front-cover. AD on obi reads in Japanese "Digitally Re-mastered". It may be only in Japan to issue this album as audiophile on vinyl. It's hard to find this item even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: EX/EX- ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is excellent in condition, except for slightly creased spine-edge. The banana-sticker is still on the front, which is lightly creased. It’s clean on each side. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip, stain & writing…OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. There’re slight marks in part on the surface of Side B, they seem to be “misprint”, which don’t affect the sound. A few spindle-marks ARE on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which can be rated as “EX-".

OBI: G, being torn in the top-rim of back. It’s creased in places on the surface of front, while being stained with brown spots in places on that of back.

INSERT: VG+, being lightly discolored on the surface of each side. The left top corner is creased.
