Description
For all those who can't afford the real thing
I will be honest here this is a Japanese counterfeit produced in the late 70's, many ebayers have passed this off as an original
The Japanese counterfeit is a much better copy than other counterfeits, but it can be identified by the slightly cropped photo's on the cover (on the front Bowie's feet touch the edge of the sleeve on the counterfeit, whereas they by far don't on the original) that also has a different texture (it uses wax to reproduce the original wallpaper-like sleeve), the spine (on which the album title and catalogue number have been inverted), and the record label (which is dark grey instead of black, with a silver edge that is absent from the original, and has R 1971 rather than P 1971, plus a space in the word BRO ADCASTING).
The Lp and cover is immaculate apart from 1 or 2 hairline mark/scratch on either side of the LP and the 1 or 2 tiny scuffs, I am unable to test the sound.
This a very good attempt at reproducing such a rarity and to own one in this condition after 30+ years would be a great addition to anyone's collection
UK postage will depend upon price sold at, it will either be next day or recorded
Overseas postage may seem high but I will refund the difference if less, i will be sending it signed for
