## THE VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO — ORIGINAL 1967 FIRST PRESSING

### STEREO (V6-5008) • 100% UNPEELED BANNA STICKER • UNCENSORED "TORSO" COVER


Up for auction is an absolute holy grail of 20th-century music and pop-art history: a genuine, verified 1967 first-pressing stereo copy of *The Velvet Underground & Nico* on Verve Records (V6-5008).


This is the ultimate, definitive trifecta version that serious collectors spend decades searching for.


### KEY FEATURES OF THIS ELITE COPY:

* **100% Unpeeled Banana Sticker:** The iconic Andy Warhol-designed yellow banana vinyl sticker remains completely intact, unpeeled, and firmly attached to the front gatefold jacket.

* **Uncensored "Torso" Back Cover:** This is the ultra-rare, first-batch layout featuring the upside-down image of actor Eric Emerson projected behind the band. It has NOT been covered by a black censorship sticker, and it has NOT been airbrushed out into a black void.

* **True 1967 Gatefold Jacket:** Beautifully preserved original cardboard gatefold that opens like a book.

* **Pristine Vinyl:** Includes the original Verve stereo vinyl record in magnificent, top-tier condition.


### CONDITION REPORT:

* **Jacket Cover:** Excellent/Near Mint presentation. The colors on the iconic back cover photo are remarkably rich, sharp, and vibrant with excellent original gloss. Minimal aging, clean edges, and fantastic overall structural integrity. (Please refer closely to the high-resolution photos for exact cosmetic condition).

* **Vinyl Disc:** Gorgeous, high-grade condition with brilliant original luster. Looks and plays beautifully.


### SHIPPING & HANDLING:

Due to the high-value, museum-quality nature of this historic artifact, this item will be packed with the utmost professional care. The vinyl will be removed from the jacket during transit to prevent any seam splits, housed in premium protective sleeves, securely packed in a heavy-duty record mailer, and shipped with **full tracking, signature confirmation, and full insurance coverage.**


Bid with absolute confidence. Add the ultimate crown jewel to your vinyl or art collection
