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 3 MIL poly inner sleeve.

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

  • It doesn't get any better than this for Queen fans: A Mint Condition, First Pressing, White label Promo that has never been played.
  • And this critically acclaimed album is recognized as their best work.
  • The white single piece board gatefold cover has tight seams, a stiff spine and shows no wear. The white has yellowed very slightly.
  • The plain white die-cut inner sleeve has a 1"tear on the opening edge. I have included a soft poly inner sleeve.
  • Seller got this new from Elektra upon initial release in 1975. It has been in storage for 41 years.
