Appendices: "Orange OBI" & “G/F Cover"
( INSERT is not originally issued )

Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in 1971 ) of their masterpiece album. The insert was not originally issued for this album. Label of disc is in deep green, typical for its early 1970’s of Warner Japan’s label. The price of obi & cover is JPY2000. It’s hard to find this item with orange obi even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: VG/EX+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, spine & lightly other outer edges. A tiny handwritten “arrow” is in the track-list on the back side. Inside gate-fold, it’s slightly tanned and scraped around its rims. Otherwise it has none of any tear, ring-wear, dent, strip & stain...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. A few slight scuffs are on each side. There are a few to several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch & hairline, which is to be rated as "EX+".

OBI: VG+, being stained with minor spots in places on the surface of front side. A supply-tag is still in the top of back.

INSERT: INSERT is not originally issued for this item.
