Japan Orig. LP

Appendices: "Outer Cover”, “Embossed Inner Cover”, “Inner-Bag" & “Insert”
( OBI is not included )
Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1981 ) of their original album, coming with rare appendices. The outer-cover was issued in limited number for the purpose of promotion only. The text on the bottom-rim of back-side of outer-cover says “NOT FOR SALE for the purpose of promotion only” ( See photo ). It houses ordinary cover. Though obi is not included, it’s not sure if it was originally issued with this outer-cover. The inner-cover & disc are not promotional but ordinary copy. The inner-cover is embossed on the front. It’s hard to find Japanese copy of this album with this promo outer-cover even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
Condition: VG/NM- ( Inner Cover / Disc )
INNER COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for lightly worn corners, right-edge, spine & bottom-edge. It’s lightly scraped on lower portion of front & upper portion of back. Minor brown spots are on upper portion of front & lower of back. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing…OK.
DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There are several 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: OBI is not included. But it’s not sure if it was originally issued with this promo outer-cover.
INSERT: G+, being lightly tanned with light stain-marks on the surface of each side.
INNER-BAG: G, being creased in places with ring-crease & brown spots on the surface of each side.
OUTER COVER: VG, being creased in the right top-rim of front, while being lightly worn on the corners & outer-edges. Short creases are on the spine-rims of each side.
