Description
One record only! I bought this 20 years ago in just the plain inner sleeve - it is side A/D and the original first press. Its Track Record 613008, apparently this first press is very rare. The first press identifiers are the upside down numbers above the 613008, that it does not state part of 2 record set, also has the scratched out numbers in black 61300##8 A//1 on the inside. The number 8 is scratched in by hand and the two hashes denote where numbers were scratched out. Please see details below from Discogs. Condition is not mint, it has scratches on surface from playing. If you need further photos or information please email me. Thanks!
