Japan Early Press LP
Apple AP - 80011
Appendices: "Medallion OBI", "G/F Cover", “Inner Sleeve” & "Insert"
Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Pressing copy ( released in 1970 ) of their 1st album ( in US ), coming with complete appendices. This album was issued with gate-fold cover in Japan, showing inside "Japanese liner notes" & “Photos of members". The disc is not red, but black. The obi is unique “medallion” in shape in “apple” of front. The price of obi is JPY2000, but the back cover is JPY2200. It's hard to find this item in complete shape even in our country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )
COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for some brown spots on the top-rims of each side ( mostly on the front side ). It’s lightly scraped around the rims inside gate-fold. The spine-edge is lightly discolored. Otherwise it has no tear, ring-wear, strip, dent & writing...OK.
DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. There’re some spindle-marks on each label with brown spots on the label of Side B. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+". No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, we guarantee you.
OBI: G, being creased in the side-rims of “apple”, as usual with this type of obi. It’s also creased with minor brown spots in the middle of front. It’s torn in the top-rim of back side and bottom-edge ( See photo ). A stamp is on the bottom-rim of back side.
INSERT: G+, being lightly rippled and tanned with some brown spots on the surface of each side. A vertical folding crease is in the middle of each side.
INNER SLEEVE: G+, being rippled with ring-crease on the surface of each side.
