The Smashing Pumpkins
"Mellon Collie and the Infinite Sadness" (1995) #3247
The Smashing Pumpkins' 4th LP. This is an original 1995 UK pressing from the first run of 5000 numbered copies, bought new by me AND it's a PROMOTIONAL COPY! I was lucky enough to get two of these at the time it was released so this copy is 100% unplayed and brand new. The vinyl pressing has a different running order than the CDs and also includes two extra songs - Tonight Reprise and Infinite Sadness. This is an incredibly rare record in top condition.
Cover NM-
There is a small sticker over the barcode that states "PROMOTIONAL COPY NOT FOR SALE." The number 3247 is right where it should be, inside the white box on the front cover that was left blank on later pressings. This didn't come sealed so there is no shrinkwrap. Usually these original covers turn up with a lot of ringwear and creasing, but this one is nearly flawless. No ringwear (I've stored the records outside the sleeve ever since I received it) and no creasing other than a little wear on two of the corners and a small amount of rub-wear at the top center of the front, which is the way it arrived from the factory. There is also what appears to be a slight printing error - a horizontal line about a third of the way up. It is on the front and back, but not on the inside of the gatefold. The copy I'm keeping (#3246) has the same error. Please see the pictures.
Vinyl MINT
Normally I wouldn't use the grade MINT on anything that isn't sealed, but as these are brand new, unplayed records, it seems fitting. Not a scratch or surface mark anywhere to be seen. Includes original white lined inner sleeves. Original booklet in NM- condition.
Please be sure to check out my other auctions for other rare vinyl from the 90s and 2000s! I offer discounts on shipping multiple items.
All grading is done visually. If you need me to play-test a specific track, please email me. I try to grade conservatively in the hopes that what you receive will meet (or hopefully exceed) your expectations.
