Hi! You're looking at a SUPERB condition LP Vinyl Set which is a FIRST PRESSING 1977 Epic Records / Cleveland International Records album and a classic rock LP by the late singer MEAT LOAF titled "Bat Out of Hell"--the album features the hit single "Paradise by the Dashboad Lights," was produced by TODD RUNDGREN and features songs written by the JIM STEINMAN.  The LP is an Epic Records / Cleveland International Records issue and a 1st PRESSING with the serial number PE 34974 and was made in 1977 in The United States.
This LP Set is in SUPERB condition and the vinyl is in NEAR MINT condition and should play beautifully, with NO significant imperfections; the cvoer is in NEAR MINT- condition with a small ding and slight partial tear on the upper left edge of the front cover, a very slight puckering of the outer paper on the cover in a few spots on the left portion of the front surface and right portion of the back surface and just slight shelfwear otherwise but NO other significant flaws--it's NOT a cutout!  The ORIGINAL INNER SLEEVE is also included and in beautiful shape, with small center splits on the edges and just very light handling wear otherwise.
