Description

The Wailers

Catch A Fire.

 

This is an Original 'MINT' Condition Copy With the Rare Limited Edition "ZIPPO" Cover.

  • This Copy has been stored and unplayed for over 30years until I gave it a spin on my trusty Pink Triangle Turntable(Not Some Rusty Nail) before auctioning. It is completely unmarked, has no scratches, pops, clicks or jumps and absolutely no fingerprints.
  • According to Wikipedia, the first 20,000 copies of the original 1973 vinyl release were encased in the famous Zippo sleeve. This sleeve worked as a Zippo lighter case would, opening at a side hinge to reveal the record within. However, the producers soon realized that this operation would require hand-manufacture, as machinery available was not sufficient to rivet the upper and lower halves of the sleeve together.
  • Copies of the record from these original pressings have since become collectors' items, and subsequent pressings are recognizable by their alternative cover art of Bob Marley smoking a big joint.

 

  • Cover in Excellent Condition - Stored in a Plastic Sleeve for protection.
  • One of the Seventies 'Greatest Album Covers'.
  • Rare.
