Description
Kraftwerk Trans-Europe Express Vinyl LP 1977 US 1st Press Red Label SW-11603 NM Shrink
ATTENTION COLLECTORS: Unlike the common modern 180g reissues flooded on the market, this is a true archival-grade, play-verified 1977 original U.S. 1st pressing.
Up for sale is an absolute time-capsule copy of Kraftwerk's electronic masterpiece, Trans-Europe Express. This is a genuine 1977 U.S. First Pressing featuring the distinctive Capitol Records Red Label.
The A-side deadwax features the clear, authentic stamped identifier: SW-1-11603-F5 alongside the official "Mastered by Capitol" stamp.
Condition Breakdown:
The Vinyl (Near Mint): This record has been played exactly twice since purchased brand new in 1977—once to listen upon opening, and once to safely transfer the tracks to an alternative audio format for archival preservation. The vinyl retains its brilliant, deep factory gloss. The audio plays clean, clear, and quiet with no pops or crackles.
The Jacket (Near Mint): The outer jacket is still fully preserved under its original vintage store shrink wrap. Firmly attached on the upper left corner of the shrink wrap is the original, authentic retail store price tag sticker, providing an exceptional, high-grade presentation asset for your collection. The spine remains sharp and perfectly legible.
This record comes from a smoke-free, pristine, climate-controlled personal collection. To preserve the structural integrity of this item during transit, the vinyl will be packed outside of the jacket to prevent seam splits, and protected by heavy-duty 12.25x12.25 corrugated cardboard padding inserts inside a dedicated record mailer.
