Description
From our research gathered from Discogs this looks to be the Original Presswell Record Club of America 1st pressing From 1973, Variant 5. It has the "1841 Broadway" address on the labels. It has the Robert Ludwig "RL" etch + "STERLING" stamp mastering markings in dead wax, remaining runouts are etched. I believe this would have been the version that had the sticker on the back with the Record Club of America Text, but this is no longer in shrink and does not have the sticker. It has a gatefold cover with no number on the spine and has the textured inner sleeve with printed Lyrics. All the info looks to match up, aside from no longer having the Record Club of America sticker on it, but please verify as we are not professional record graders. It has the following Etchings:
Matrix / Runout (Side A runout): ST-A-732783-C AT PR STERLING RL Matrix / Runout (Side B runout, variant 5): ST-A-732784-D AT PR STERLING RL
This is in VG+ overall condition and has been fully play tested, several times, as this is an amazing album. The Record is in VG+ condition and plays through without skipping. It has light scratches and some minor clicks but still sounds great overall, and no defects that overpower the music. The outer sleeve is in VG++ condition with some minor normal edge wear from storage. The original inner sleeve is in EX Condition with no splits. This will come in a new heavy plastic protective outer sleeve and will be packaged in a record box to make sure it arrives safely. We do our best to accurately describe our items and use the standard goldmine record grading scale, but we are not professional graders. Please review pictures and video to establish condition!
