Description
Artist: Joy Division
Title: Closer
Label: Fact 25, Fact XXV
Original UK first pressing of this hard to find classic vinyl record album, released in July 1980. Still in original shrink with original price sticker on shrink and original receipt which shows purchase date as being the day BEFORE the original release. Obviously a fine example of one of the earliest first pressings. You would be hard pressed to find another copy in better condition than this one. It is the best available copy at time of listing and is priced accordingly.
SLEEVE: No ringwear. No cutouts. No seam splits. No folds. No abrasions. No creasing other than very light bottom right corner. Slight bottom right corner impact. Its original condition was most like never any better. The sleeve grades NM. Inner sleeve has very slight ringwear and evidence of handling, but is otherwise in excellent condition. No rips, tears, or seam splits. Rough cardboard with rounded corners. Innermost black paper sleeve has some ringwear, e\evidence of handling, wrinkling and light creasing. No rips, tears or seam splits.
VINYL: No spindle marks. No warping. Very light, almost imperceptible scratches and scuffs that do not affect playback. The record grades EX (VG++). It is the nicest example I have ever owned.
