This stunning original is another superb find from a recent buying trip to Japan. This is only the second time we’ve managed to find a copy complete with its original purple obi strip. The album is reasonably easy to pick up if you're not bothered about condition and, of course, it never has the obi!

The heavyweight gatefold pasted picture cover is free of seam splits and the wide spine displays clearly legible print with only the faintest parallel line crease down the centre. Internally, the green paper pasted inner shows few signs of wear, and just some faint signs of foxing near the bottom of the obi. The bright blue print is clean and perfectly legible, and despite a very small tear mark visible over the title on the front cover, this is otherwise an excellent example.

The vinyl is near mint. Just the faintest spindle mark one side gives away the fact this has ever been placed on a turntable; simply a magnificent copy that has been thoroughly well looked after.

The all-important obi has just the slightest foxing to the bottom edge, otherwise no paper loss or heavy creasing, plus the back retains the often removed re-order tag.

All in all, a beautiful example!
