Appendices: "Original OBI”, “G/F Gimmick Cigar Case Cover”, “Inner-Bag” & “Insert”
Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy of their original album, coming with complete appendices. The gate-fold cover is gimmick cigar case cover. It’s very hard to find this item in complete shape even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )
COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners & outer-edges. It’s partly split along the perforation inside cover, as usual with this perforated cigarette cover. The bottom-rim of front-lid is split off along the perforation. Though it’s partly split in the middle of bottom-edge, it’s not defect but original slit ( See photo ). 2 brown spots are on the right of front lid. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, 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+".
OBI: G+, being partly creased on the surface of each side, with its outer-edges partly worn. It’s torn short in the side-edge ( corner ).
INSERT: G, being browned with brown spots on the surface of each side.
INNER-BAG: VG, being lightly creased on the surface of each side. The bottom-edge is lightly worn.
