Bruce Springsteen / Greetings From Asbury Park
Japan Early Press LP


CBS SOPO - 124

Appendices: "Wrap-Around OBI + INSERT”, “CBS/SONY Card ( questionnaire )” & “G/F Gimmick Cover”

Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in 1975 ) of his 1st album, coming with complete appendices. This album was not issued in Japan until 1975. The original obi is very unique, wrapping around the cover ( See photo ). The insert is attached to the obi with perforation. The cover is gimmick gate-fold cover, as usual. In addition, a “CBS/SONY Card ( questionnaire )” issued is also enclosed. It’s hard to find this item even in my 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, spine-edge & lightly other edges. It’s lightly scraped with light ring-wear on the surface of front & back. Inside the gate-fold, it’s partly discolored along the center-fold. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is nearly TOP in condition, keeping glossy. There’re a few minor spots on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff, scratch, hairline & spindle-mark on each label, which can be rated as “NM”. No flaw on the groove…very clean disc, I guarantee you.

OBI + INSERT: G, being wrinkled in part on the surface of each side. Outer-edges are worn and partly ragged with short tears.

CBS/SONY CARD: EX
