Description
Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted.
Grading is based on visual inspection.
Album ships in a 2 MIL poly cover sleeve and a poly-lined inner sleeve..
I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.
New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played. I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.
- This is an Elektra Records White Label Promotional Copy of the First Pressing of the original 1986 release. This was Metallica's debut release on Elektra (their two previous albums were released on the Megaforce label).
- This copy has never been played.
- The gold foil Promo stamp is on the top of the back cover and there is a saw cut upper left front cover.
- The cover has tight seams and shows no wear. There is a small corner bump upper right.
- The original inner sleeve has lyrics, credits and photos. Each side of the inner sleeve has a split. I have included a soft poly-lined inner sleeve.
- This is a one-owner that the Seller got new from Elektra Records in 1986. It has been in storage for 35 years.
- Shipping charges include insurance.
