Appendices: “Original OBI”, “Another Red Slim OBI”, “Triple G/F Cover", “Booklet” & “Fold-Out Poster”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy of his double-album, coming with complete appendices. A booklet shows “Japanese description”, “English & Japanese lyrics” and “Photos of Elton”. Another red slim obi reads in Japanese “Japan Tour Memorial Album”. The enclosed poster was issued only for its 1st press. It’s hard to find this item in complete shape even in my country. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
