BLACK SABBATH – SABOTAGE – ORIGINAL 1ST JAPANESE PRESS – RJ-7043 – WITH OBI & INSERT – STUNNING HIGH-GRADE COPY

Up for sale is an absolutely beautiful original Japanese pressing of Black Sabbath’s Sabotage, catalog number RJ-7043, complete with the original OBI strip and Japanese insert/inlay.

This is an exceptionally clean example and is becoming increasingly difficult to find in this kind of condition.

MATRIX / RUNOUT INFORMATION:

Side 1: 6366 115 A 1

Side 2: 6366 115 B 1 1 1

Please also refer to the photographs for the exact matrix/runout markings and pressing details.

VINYL: MINT- / EXCEPTIONAL

The record itself is practically mint. This is an extremely high-grade copy that I would personally consider above the typical Near Mint example.

The vinyl is exceptionally clean and beautiful. Somewhere under extremely close inspection or very specific lighting, someone may possibly locate a tiny superficial hairline or similarly insignificant mark, which is why I prefer to describe the record conservatively rather than claim absolute Mint.

Overall, this is a gorgeous collector-grade record and one of the cleaner examples you are likely to encounter.

SLEEVE: EX

The original Japanese sleeve presents beautifully and is in excellent condition overall. Please examine all photographs closely for the exact condition.

OBI: EX

Original OBI strip is present and in excellent condition. A major part of what makes this such an attractive and complete Japanese copy.

JAPANESE INSERT / INLAY: EX

Original Japanese insert/inlay is included and is in excellent condition on both sides.

OVERALL:

An outstanding, high-grade Japanese copy of one of Black Sabbath’s classic albums. Copies of Sabotage with the OBI, insert and exceptionally clean vinyl are increasingly difficult to find, particularly with the record preserved to this standard.

An awesome addition for the serious Black Sabbath or Japanese vinyl collector.
