Description: This is scarce Japanese Early Press copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of their masterpiece album. The insert was not originally issued for this album. It’s hard to find this item with orange obi even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn corners, spine, top & lightly other outer-edges. It’s stained with minor spots around the rims inside gate-fold. Slight ring-wear is on upper portion of back. A short split is in the middle of center-fold inside gate-fold ( See photo ). Otherwise it has none of any dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition, keeping glossy. It has some slight scuffs on Side A with a light scratch on Side A-3 ( inaudible ). A few tiny minor scratches are also on Side B ( inaudible each ). There’re several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any hairline, which is to be rated as “EX-".
