Description

Extremely rare copy of the folk/ psych classic 'Balaklava' by Pearls before Swine from 1968. Hard enough to find a clean copy of the normal edition, this is either a test press or a white label promo copy. labels are white with black title printed on them- completely different from the usual labels...

Cover is a strong VG÷. very light ring wear as you can see in picture, some wear to top and btm seams with about a 1" split at top and btm openning. but all in all, still a very nice jacket with Breugel's painting and Cocteau's drawings still comin' across loud and clear.

Record is also a strong VG÷, maybe Ex. this is, of course, the very earliest press you could ask for- a promo or maybe a test pressing (?). has some very, very light scuffs but looks barely played. labels are super clean.

You won't be disappointed with this copy.

please fear not when buying from me: i work at a record shop, and have also been buying through the mail for many years. so i know how to grade records, and how to package them properly.

Thanks for looking.
