From 1973, come The Wailers with Bob Marley doing their debut album Catch A Fire on Island SW9329 cigarette lighter cover.LP contains nine tracks and has the very limited FIRST cover for this release! The cover is shaped like a cigarette lighter and opens up to expose the flint with the flame! Very few of these covers remained in good shape due to the way they were constructed.The metal stud hinge is still there! This cover was immediately changed when the complaints about the difficulty of putting the record back in the jacket began to arise! The Wailers were made up of Bob Marley,Peter Tosh, Aston Barrett,Bunny Wailer,and Carlton Barrett.  

This item is an ORIGINAL!!

 ALL RECORDS GRADED VISUALLY WITH 150 WATT BULB AND THIRTY FOUR YEARS OF EXPERIENCE!! 

MY GRADING IS FOLLOWS: MINT MINUS=AS CLOSE TO NEW AS CAN POSSIBLY BE, AFTER BEING TOUCHED BY HUMAN HANDS.

VG++= LOTS OF PLAY IS LEFT, NO MARKS, SCUFFS OR SCRATCHES. LOOKS TO HAVE BEEN PLAYED VERY LITTLE.

VG+ = SHOWS SOME SIGNS OF BEING PLAYED, BUT STILL IS A QUALITY PLAY. MAY HAVE SOME LIGHT MARKS.

I WILL NOTE ALL FLAWS BEFORE I GIVE THE GRADING. IF THERE ARE NO FLAWS LISTED, THAT MEANS THE RECORD IS EITHER MINT MINUS OR STILL SEALED!  OLDER RECORDS DO NOT SOUND LIKE NEW RECORDS, AS RECORDS ARE MADE OUT OF MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF VINYL AND VINYL SUBSTITUTES AND MOST OF THEM WERE NOT PRESSED ON 100% VIRGIN VINYL!. IF YOU WANT A RECORD THAT SOUNDS LIKE A 180 GRAM RECORD, THEN BUY A 180 GRAM RECORD. THE OLDER RECORDS ARE A LOWER DENSITY AND ARE 90 TO 110 GRAMS, THEREFORE THEY CANNOT SOUND THE SAME AS NEW ONES!

FLAWS:   Light high spot rubs, few stress marks along edges of cover,light banging along seam which opens up to expose the lighter inside,small bang on rear cover where lower half of the lighter is.Slightly curled edge at bottom part of upper cover.Minor paper loss in this area.

GRADE:   Cover is VG+ and record is MINT MINUS!!!
