Description

I copied this description from another live eBay auction because it looks like we have the same/similar album. I couldn't find this version on Discogs and was shocked to find someone with almost the same copy, below:  ...also, I have no idea what these documents are that are inside the album. Not sure if these came with the album or were photocopied from a magazine. Did photocopiers even exist back then??


This will be packed and shipped in a record mailer with additional cardboard on both sides of the LP for added protection. Shipping is automatically calculated based on the box size, wieght, and your distance from me. It will default to Media Mail for cost savings, but you may select Priority Mail (which is the fastest, but most expensive option).  


[now, the mostly copied part...]

This one has me stumped (actually, not that hard to do) because of all the inconsistencies I ran into while trying to research this particular copy. 

We'll start with the sleeve:  

• On the back, you will see that in the upper right corner, there are two numbers instead of one; CL 1986 and CS 8786.  

• In the bottom right corner, there is the letter A and every one of these albums I viewed had either a 1, a 3, a 6 or nothing at all in that spot.  

• There's probably more inconsistencies on the sleeve that I missed, but remember, albums are not in my wheelhouse.

• The condition of the sleeve is used of course, but not edge-split.  Photo shows this. 

• The paper sleeve insert doesn't seem to have anything to do with this record, so may not be original. 

 

Now, to the record itself and the information I noted there. 

• It is MONO with the 360 Sound and arrows in white.  

• It does say Nonbreakable. 

• The dead wax stamps are:

• Side 1 is XLP-58717-3K (looks machine stamped) and Side 2 is XLP-58718-2L (looks hand etched)

• Weight is 142 grams, but this copy doesn't match up to the labels on any 140 gram copy I found to research; they all either don't have the arrows, don't have Nonbreakable, or do or don't have things that this label doesn't have or does have. 

• The record has some light scuffs and scratches.
