** MONO ** VELVET UNDERGROUND & NICO LP - Warhol - BANANA - 1st Press East Coast.

First let me be crystal clear,I am in no way a record guy.I be been buying,collecting for 40 years..I literally have 10 storages filled with stuff I’ve been buying .I stumbled across this awhile back at a local auction and to be honest I only bought it because I like Andy Warhol and thought it was Cool..I don’t listen to albums nor am I really into them.I do have a few thousand 45s and records kn my storages but only because I buy stuff if I get good deals..with that I looked this album up and from what I seen I believe it’s a east coast 1st pressing.I’m sure the real collector s will know for sure.I have not tried to play it since I only have a mid century record player in my living but it doesn’t work I only have that cause it’s cool looking and I like MCM.I prob do have some old turntables buried in my storages but I have no clue where they are.When I took the pictures I had a bright spot light on it so I’m not sure if it will make it look worse or not but to me the record itself looks pretty nice.I’m not a grader nor will I pretend to be.As can be seen part of the banana is missing but most is still there.two sides have splits as can be seen .The paper sleeve is atco and I’m assuming it isn’t original since everyone I seen has the same kind.I was offered 900 for this around a year ago but the guy was from Germany and I didn’t want to ship overseas not sure if what it’s worth ,I’ve seen people asking up to 3k .I am listing it at bucks and just gonna let it go so maybe someone will get a great deal.Please do not bid if you are gonna have buyers remorse .I am selling this as is as there are too many scammers out there..I am located in Pa and you are more than welcome to see it on person before bidding if you aren’t too far from me

If I am wrong about the pressing please feel free to let me know as I stated I am not into records and I basically googled the record and that’s what I came up with

It seems to have a smear or two from what I see ..I thought about cleaning it from what I read you could but I was on fear of ruining it so I left it in found condition..it is very shiney ,please see photos as they basically are the description .it is V-5008,and it says side 1 and side 2 which from what I read means first pressing east coast
