Description

Vintage Charisma / Atlantic FC 6060 • 1973 U.S. First Pressing (Presswell PR) • Brown Lyric Insert + Original Inner Sleeve
A beautiful early U.S. pressing of Genesis’s classic 1973 album, Selling England by the Pound — the definitive statement of the band’s early progressive period, featuring Dancing with the Moonlit Knight, Firth of Fifth, and I Know What I Like (In Your Wardrobe).
This is the highly sought-after Presswell (PR) first pressing, easily identified by the “ST-FC-732993 PR” label code and matching hand-etched runout ending in A. The disc retains its original brown lyric insert (often missing and now quite rare) and the original illustrated inner sleeve, completing the full 1973 package.
