Appendices: "Arrow OBI”, “G/F Cover”, “Inner-Bag”, “Insert”, “Brown Track-List Sheet” & “Red Wax”

Description: This is scarce Japanese Apple Edition 1st Press copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of their original album, coming with complete appendices. The price on obi & cover is JPY2000 for its Apple Edition 1st press. The disc is not red but ordinary black. A rare brown “track-list sheet” is enclosed, which seems to have been issued in limited number. It’s hard to find this item in complete shape even in our country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.
