I am the seller - Ron Stein, the founder and first owner of Lakeshore Record Exchange in Rochester New York from 1980 through 1988, where we were one of the first stores in the U.S. to specialize in the new 1980s heavy metal.  We did club shows and in-stores and sponsored the Metallic Overdrive radio show on Friday and Saturday nights.  I recently bought a small collection of about 25 pieces of original 1980s heavy metal vinyl from a girl who was one of my regular customers at that time, this piece was part of that collection and was probably sold to its original buyer in my shop in 1984.  I'll be listing these on eBay for the next couple of weeks, so watch my listings!  Hello to all of my old Lakeshore friends! 
This is an ORIGINAL 1984 CAMOUFLAGE LABEL COMBAT RECORDS U.S. LP titled 'Don't Break The Oath', the second full length release from King Diamond and Mercyful Fate.  It is Combat Records U.S. catalog number MX 8011.  Record comes packaged inside the cover in its original custom inner sleeve with song lyrics, photos, and album credits.
Please see my accompanying back cover image for the track listing and other information.

Condition of record is VG+ with a few visible surface marks resulting from use and a few concentric turntable marks.  Condition of cover is VG+ with a few slight wrinkles, some ring and contact wear, and some wear along the edges and on the corners, no splits or tears.  Custom inner sleeve has a split in its bottom edge which I have repaired with clear tape.
This LP would make a choice addition to any Mercyful Fate, King Diamond, or 1980s heavy metal record collection!  $5.50 SHIPPING via USPS Media Mail.  Shipping to areas outside the U.S. via eBay international shipping.  BUYER PLEASE DO NOT SEND CASH - IT PROBABLY WILL NOT GET HERE! I will give an immediate refund (less shipping) upon return of the mini LP and lyric sheet in the above stated condition if buyer is dissatisfied for any reason.
