Japan Early Press LP


DJM FP - 80051

Appendices: "Black & Orange OBI”, “Fine Textured G/F Cover" & “Insert”

Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of his 1st album, coming with complete appendices. The gate-fold cover is fine-textured on its surface of each side. The price on obi & cover is JPY2200. It’s hard to find this album with obi even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/NM ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, top, spine & lightly other outer edges. It’s lightly stained on the rims inside gate-fold ( manly its top-rim…See photos ), while being clean on the front & back. Otherwise it has none of any tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There’re 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 lightly rippled and stained on the surface of back side.

INSERT: VG+, being slightly tanned on the surface of each page.
