Description: This is scarce Japanese Apple Edition 1st Press copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of their original album, coming with rare arrow obi. The disc is rare red wax, issued for its 1st press. Though the insert is missing, it’s still hard to find this item with red-wax even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G/G+ ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is partly worn on the corners & right-edge. It’s scraped in places with ring-wear on the surface of front & back, while being lightly stained inside gate-fold. Otherwise it has none of any tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc has slight scuffs including slight scratches & hairlines here and there on each side. There are a few spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any serious flaw ( such as deep scratch ), which is to be rated as "G+". All flaws are so light that it plays strong on each track.

OBI: G, being creased in places on the surface of each side, while being stained on that of back. A supply-tag is attached to the top of back.

INSERT: INSERT is missing.

INNER-BAG: G+, being creased in places with ring-crease on the surface of each side.
