Description

About This Record.  This is another cool LP from my Vinyl Vault! that I am offering for NO RESERVE! There were only about 1000 stock copies of this David Bowie USA LP pressed, and far, far fewer promo copies of course, This is an original USA PROMO copy released on Mercury Records in 1970 with the comic cover, and original colors on the cover.  White label promo copy has the original stamped matrix numbers and is not one of those numerous . . . .er boots..  Top Keeper copy although the cover has issues.  Please see my detailed photos of the cover and LP and labels, as well as the details below and 

PLEASE CHECK my Feedback which will show you my grading, Cover/Vinyl, of other LPs I have recently sold and what the lucky people who are bought them think of them and our experience. The photos of the labels or cover list the songs and any possible details about the labels. 

I offer full refund including shipping both ways (for USA and foreign buyers in case for some wildly strange reason you might be unhappy with this purchase.  Comes hand-cleaned on my VPI 16.5 Record Cleaning machine (hate those automated 17's) and placed in a new dust-free sleeve for your grandchildren.  And at least one plastic sleeves for moisture protection (for you and me).

Cover Condition: Very Good (VG) with lots of seam splits on top seam; otherwise, pretty darn nice as these things go, But still a VG cover.  Original cover with different colors around the "David Bowie" and a not off center back cover slick.  But I do have a reissue fake that most are for sale as well, so you can compare.  

Vinyl Condition: Excellent Plus (EX+) much better.  Good luck finding another nicer copy!  This is a slightly heavier promo white label copy. Top Keeper Copy.   Impossible to upgrade.

Labels. Near Mint (NM) / Excellent Minus (EX-) labels.  There is some writing in black marker on the "B" side but otherwise the labels are pristine.  Please see photos of all labels.

Inserts: Comes with original plain white (now brown) paper inner sleeve in Nice condition, but no worries, the vinyl also comes cleaned on my KL Audio Ultrasonic record cleaning machine and in a new rice paper equivalent sleeve so the old Dust does not reattach!  Oh My Gosh!

Packaging.  I clean all vinyl as noted above, and place it in a new innersleeve so the old dust does not reattach; but I also include the innersleeve that came with the LP if it is the original.  I separate the vinyl in its new sleeve after cleaning from the cover, and place the cover and the separately packed vinyl in at least one if not two plastic innersleeves that help protect against moisture damage during this cool records transition to your record collection.  I use sturdy carboard containers with real corners and pack with at least two insert stiffeners, and I place neon stickers on the front and back of the package indicating “Do Not Bend” and/or “Fragile” or something like that to help facilitate a safe passage.

Shipping and Payment.  PayPal only.  I ship promptly worldwide; sometimes the automatic eBay invoice does not have accurate shipping if you buy more than one LP, so if you are unsure email me and ask for an invoice. . . .  I offer full refund on this record including shipping both ways, unless you live outside North America in which case I will refund you shipping one way unless I made a mistake which I sometimes do because I am only human..  CALIFORNIA RESIDENTS:  Please add sales tax!
