Description
This super rare and hard to find picture sleeve is from the 1st American single release by The Jimi Hendrix Experience, “Hey Joe” b/w “51st Anniversary”, released on Reprise Records in 1967, catalog number 0572. “Hey Joe” was later re-released as a double A side single with “Foxy Lady”, but this sleeve is from the original release. This listing is ONLY for the picture sleeve. The record is NOT included, although I do have the subsequent re-issue 45 of “Hey Joe” b/w Foxy Lady” that I will throw into the mix, if requested by the buyer.
It’s in pretty good condition for a piece of paper that’s over half a century old, but it does have several small tears at the top on the “B” side, which features “51st Anniversary, and 2 super tiny tears on the “Hey Joe” “A” side. No paper is missing, but take a look at my close ups for an unvarnished look at the tears. The 2 biggest ones are roughly an inch and a half and an inch, and there are 2 more miniscule tears on the “B” side and 2 miniscule tears on the “A” side. These are too small to measure. Again, check the pics.
If you have the original single without the sleeve, you know you need this, and even if you’re just a huge Jimi fan, it’s a super cool collectible to have.
