Odeon OP - 8163

Appendices: "Original OBI”, “G/F Cover", “Inner-Bag” & "Red Wax"
( INSERT is not originally issued )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1960’s ) of their masterpiece album, comin' with complete appendices. The disc is very rare red-wax, issued only for Japanese early press. The insert is not originally issued for this item. The price on obi & cover is JPY2000. The top-rim of obi is curled into the inside of gate-fold cover, typical of this Japanese 1st press copy ( See photo ). A supply-tag is also attached to the top of back. Anyway, it’s very hard to find this item even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG+/NM ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn lower right-edge. It’s slightly stained with minor spots inside gate-fold, while being lightly creased with light ring-crease in upper portion of back. Minor creases are on the spine-rims. A tiny strip-mark is in lower spine-edge. Otherwise it has no tear, dent & writing...OK.

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

OBI: VG, being waving on the surface of each side, while being scraped on that of back. The right top-edge is torn short. A supply-tag is attached to the top of back.

INSERT: INSERT is not originally issued for this item.

INNER-BAG: G+, being creased with stain-marks in places on the surface of each side.
