Appendices: "Original OBI” & “Fine-Textured Thick G/F Cover"
( INSERT is not enclosed )

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1970 ) of his original album, comin' with rare original obi. This album was released with gate-fold cover, showing "Japanese description" and "English lyrics" inside. Though the insert is not enclosed, it’s not sure if it was originally issued for this album. It’s hard to find this item with obi even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/VG+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners & outer-edges. It’s lightly stained inside gate-fold, while being clean on the front & back. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, strip, dent & writing...OK.

INSERT: INSERT is not enclosed. But it’s not sure if it was originally issued for this album.
