Description
Up for sale is a holy grail for Metallica collectors: an original 1986 US pressing of Master of Puppets. This is NOT a reissue or a remaster. This is the authentic 1st pressing featuring the Elektra and Megaforce Records logos on the back cover.
Provenance & History:
Original Owner: This album was a birthday gift in 1986, purchased in New York. It has been in a single-owner, smoke-free collection for 40 years.
Condition: Factory Sealed (Never Opened).
Authentication: Features the original factory breathe holes (approx. 1mm) in the shrink wrap, proving this is the original 1986 seal and not a modern reseal.

Catalog #: 7559-60439-1 / 60439-1
Year: 1986
Jacket: Sharp corners, no visible ring wear, shrink wrap is 100% intact.
This is a blue-chip investment piece for the serious thrash metal collector. Records in this "Day One" sealed condition with verified provenance are becoming nearly impossible to find.
Shipping: Will be double-boxed and shipped with full insurance and signature confirmation.
NO RETURNS: Due to the sealed nature of this vintage item, returns cannot be accepted once the factory seal is broken.
