BOB DYLAN “The Freewheelin’ Bob Dylan” ORIGINAL 1963 Canadian Columbia ~ Original Cover w/banned tracks

1963/Canada/Columbia Records CS 8786….. here’s a nice original Canadian first pressing of this rare lp. The cover is in nice VG to VG+ condition with light corner wear, light spotty seam wear, 1/2" horizontal tear on the opening edge, name on back cover, light aging on back cover, otherwise this cover is clean and solid with no splits or delete. The vinyl is in glossy VG to VG+ condition with super light hairline scuffs/scratches. The vinyl plays nice with light noise. The first pressing deep groove labels have no writing. A nice original pressing! Please check my auctions for other prog, psych and rock lp’s. Good luck and thanks for looking!

First Canadian issue with a completely incorrect track listing on the front cover. This includes the songs that were scrapped by Columbia before the record came out and were replaced by ''less offensive'' tracks. 
The back cover slick and the labels list the correct tracks. 
Red labels with ''360 Sound Stereo'' in black in the rim text. 
''Printed in Can'' down most on the label. 
''Litho in Canada'' on the front cover in the bottom left hand corner.

///GRADING///

MINT: as stated with no defects

NEAR MINT: as stated near Mint!, or Mint Minus, same thing, very clean with no defect to sound or visual appearance, one scuff or mark may be permitted but it will be mentioned in the description, a near Mint record looks and plays very clean

EXCELLENT: not much below near Mint, may have a delete hole and/or a minor defect or two not visually detracting from the cover, the vinyl will appear shiny and in clean condition with very minor defects not affecting the sound, still very clean and very collectable!

VG++ still a very nice copy with minimal cover wear and/or delete/splits, still visually appealing, the vinyl will retain it's original gloss and can have some minor scuffs/scratches that don't affect play very much

VG+ a little more cover/ring wear and delete, splits etc., the vinyl will still retain much original gloss with a bit more scuffs and/or scratches I may list a very rare or desirable item with a lower grade, I will try to list all defects, both cover and vinyl no matter the condition.
