TITLE: Blue Flower 
FORMAT: 12"
LABEL: Rough Trade (U.S)
CATALOGUE NUMBER: (none)
YEAR OF RELEASE: 1990
FEATURES: PROMO ONLY (bespoke labels & track listing). With sticker 'For Promotional Use Only. From The Forthcoming LP, CD, CT Mazzy Star (Rough US 77)'. Plus the ORIGINAL U.S. PROMO POSTER for She Hangs Brightly (the actual title of the debut album) hand folded in four. I matched the poster with the 12" myself. 
VINYL CONDITION: MINT Stored since new, never played. Not removed from sleeve at any point from the time of manufacture until I until I checked it recently for manufacturing faults.
SLEEVE: Original plain black die cut card sleeve with promo sticker. Unhandled with some signs of storage.
INNER SLEEVE: White die cut paper
OTHER NOTES: The first Mazzy Star vinyl, circulated prior to the release of debut album She Hangs Brightly. There were no generally released or other promo singles from the album. By misnaming the forthcoming album 'Mazzy Star' the sticker shows that the promo was manufactured before the album was (re)titled. The poster measures 60cm x 40cm (24"x16") and is UNUSED.
TRACK LISTING: Same track both sides.
THE PHOTOS are part of the item description so please view all three carefully using the zoom function before bidding/buying. 

At time of writing it is one of many original 1980s/'90s promo posters, records, tapes, postcards, etc. I currently have for sale (please click 'SELLER'S OTHER ITEMS' to view), PLUS SOME MORE 1980s/'90s MINT UNPLAYED ORIGINAL INDEPENDENT LABEL VINYL. 

PROMO VINYL: Produced in small quantities by record companies in advance of release date for music business people like journalists, DJs, key shops etc., sometimes with pressings, catalogue numbers, and track listings different to the commercially released issue. They were each from a limited edition one-off copy run for the record label and were never on sale to the public.

Postcards, flyers, stickers & factory folded posters are FREE POSTAGE with this item. COMBINED POSTAGE DISCOUNT available on multiple vinyl orders. Please see information below for the terms of these offers.
