Description

Michael Jackson – HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I Original 1995 First-Generation 3-LP Vinyl Box Set (Catalog: E3 59000 / BL 59001) An absolute treasure for audiophiles and serious collectors. This is the rare, first-generation original US press featuring the unedited versions of "They Don't Care About Us" and "HIStory," which were quickly altered or removed on subsequent pressings. This copy does not include an apology letter, confirming its true first-run status. Item Condition & Archival Handling

  • The Box: Flawless condition. Shows absolutely no corner shelf wear, fading, or edge splitting. It has been stored upright in a protective outer sleeve within a climate-controlled room. (Note: Does not include the original external shrink wrap or hype sticker).
  • The Vinyl: The 3 LPs are in immaculate condition and have been handled strictly by their outer edges. To completely eliminate the risk of seam splits during storage and transit, the records have been safely removed from their inner sleeves and placed into premium Zolef Three-Ply Anti-Static Archival Quality Paper Enclosed Super Soft sleeves.
  • The Sleeves & Booklet: The original lyric booklet and artwork inserts are beautifully preserved. One of the original album sleeves has a small, minor seam split that was present from the factory when the box set was first opened.
Audiophile Provenance & Playback Care This archive-quality set has been played exactly ONCE to verify audio perfection. It was spun exclusively on a reference-grade VPI HW-19 turntable featuring a standalone motor for maximum isolation and zero rumble. The playback assembly utilizes a precision-aligned AudioQuest tonearm tracking an ultra-premium Benz Micro cartridge at a safe, ultra-light 1.0 gram. Zero cheap needles, zero heavy tracking forces, and zero groove wear. Shipping & Protective Packaging This valuable set will be shipped with extreme care using a dedicated record mailer and many layers of heavy-duty cardboard stiffeners to ensure it arrives at your doorstep in its exact current condition.
Please review the extensive image gallery to inspect the runout groove numbers, the outer box catalog identifier, close-ups of the pristine box, the premium Zolef sleeves, and the reference audiophile playback equipment used for its single spin. Important Shipping & Insurance Terms
  • Carrier: This item will ship strictly via USPS Priority Mail for fast, reliable delivery.
  • Mandatory Additional Insurance: USPS Priority Mail only covers up to $100.00 of insurance by default. Due to the high-value collector status of this box set ($945.00), the buyer must pay for full supplemental insurance to cover the remaining balance.
  • Invoicing: If you use "Buy It Now," please wait for a final revised invoice before sending payment so the exact carrier cost for full signature tracking and full-value insurance can be calculated for your specific delivery location.
