## THE HOLY GRAIL "DOUBLE 1A" AUDIO CONFIGURATION WITH LABELS & JACKET MISPRINTS

Up for auction is a hi-grade, archive-quality copy of Bruce Springsteen’s masterpiece, *Born to Run*. This is a verified, absolute first retail pressing from late August 1975, manufactured at the Columbia Pitman plant. It features the legendary dual-1A matrix configuration cut straight from the Master Cutting Room (MCR) Lathes in New York City.

Every single rare, period-accurate historical anomaly is fully intact on this copy, making it a true collector's centerpiece.
