Here find a Near Mint copy of the late David Bowie's classic LP:

David Bowie: "The Rise & Fall of Ziggy Stardust & the Spiders from Mars"  (RCA Victor LSP-4702 Stereo)

Original 1st US pressing from 1972.  

"A GEM Production" cited on back of jacket.

This copy is in near perfect condition.            SEE PHOTOS

The wax looks and plays like new.  Only the very lightest of paper scuffs can be seen under bright light.  Labels are flawless.  No spindle marks.

The jacket is nearly perfect.  No seam split.  No ring wear.  No writing, stamps or labels.  Super clean front and back.

The original inner sleeve (with lyrics) is present and in near mint condition except that folds are present in two corners.  These folds were created in the pressing plant, i.e. they were present when first removed from the jacket.


I cannot imagine someone finding a finer copy of this gem that is not sealed. Hoping this one goes to a good home.

 

My Profile / Policies:

Music is my passion.  I’ve been a collector for more than 50 years and have thousands of records in my personal collection, focused largely on 50’s and 60’s rock ‘n’ roll.  Recently retired, I look to downsize and sell select portions of my collection in hopes of financing future purchases of a few special pieces.  

All records I offer are from my personal collection, each cleaned using my Nitty Gritty Record Cleaning Machine.

All are play graded (not just visually graded), employing Goldmine Price Guide standards.

As I take great care to accurately describe my items, I do not accept returns unless my item description is incorrect.

All records are packaged with the wax outside the jacket (to avoid seam split in transit), enclosed in a plastic sleeve and shipped in robust record mailer boxes via USPS Media Mail, tracking included.

Payment expected within 3 business days of auction closing.
