Description

David Bowie ?– The Rise And Fall Of Ziggy Stardust And The Spiders From Mars Label: RCA Victor ?– SF 8287, RCA Victor ?– LSP 4702, RCA Victor ?– LSP-4702 Format: Vinyl, LP, Album Country: UK Released: 06 Jun 1972 Vinyl - VG Sleeve - VG Inner - Poor
First UK issue of this iconic album by David Bowie with the Titanic credits rather than Mainman credits and the marked GEM PRODUCTION on the back of the sleeve.
Has the correct inner sleeve but sadly it has gone at both seems and opens up so will need some tape if that's what you want to do.
Vinyl is pretty good and plays well, the sleeve has plenty of edgewear and ringwear and the name Lou faintly written on the back (See Images) but nothing major wrong with it.
Please study all the images very carefully as they form an important part of the description.
Please bid/buy with absolute confidence as i have over 20 years experience selling on Ebay and am very confident in my descriptions but there is always a 100% money back guarantee on items if you are not happy with your purchase or it arrives damaged.
I have sent many very expensive items all over the world and pride myself in customer satisfaction. 
Items are always packaged extremely carefully.
Questions are welcomed.

Notes

The album was recorded at Trident Studios, London, 9 July 1971 - 4 February 1972 using material from the sessions for the previous album 'Hunky Dory' ('It Ain't Easy', July 9, 1971), all other tracks being recorded between November 8, 1971 and February 4, 1972.

First UK issue. Includes printed lyrics and pics on inner sleeve. Initial copies came with a single sheet insert promoting the current tour which started on 2 June 1972 running through until 25th June 1972. Identifying features include Titanic Music publishing credit and no Mainman logo on the back of the sleeve. Later issues have a Mainman publishing credit instead of Titanic and include a Mainman logo on the rear of the sleeve.

Front cover of this issue has derived from US artwork, and the RCA Victor logo and US catalogue number have been pasted over. It is possible to discern a large rectangular cover over, on which the UK details are placed on top of. Look for lines that break./ not continuous. (Not to be confused with second issue cover, where JUST the catalogue number has been covered over and changed.)

First and second cat# on cover and label, third on inner sleeve.
