David Bowie "Event of David Bowie" ~ Limited Edition 2LP Green Vinyl Pressing (25 copies only)(Very Rare)
I obtained this album new in 1984. I placed it in a high quality click-seal sleeve and stored it upright. I did not play this album as I had another copy on black vinyl.
This green vinyl release of the "Event of David Bowie" is one of the rarest of this type of release. Only 25 copies of this green vinyl pressing were made. This copy comes with the colour front insert, the black and white rear insert and the sticker indicating that it is the colour vinyl release. This album rarely comes up for sale and this case you have the even rarer opportunity to purchase an unplayed copy in as new condition that has be stored upright and enclosed in an air-tight high quality click-seal plastic sleeve since it was acquired new. Serious bidders only please.
Condition of the vinyl: Mint- (Visual Inspection). The vinyl is glossy, clean and shiny. It looks immaculate. The translucent lime green vinyl is exceptional. The discs were not played. The plain labels are clean and immaculate. There are no spindle marks. It is essentially in the same condition as when I obtained it new over 30 years ago. See the photographs.
Condition of the sleeve: Excellent/Mint. The colour front insert is in excellent as new condition. There are no tears, bends or major flaws. The rear insert is in new condition. The silver sticker on the rear of the sleeve is intact. The thick white cardboard sleeve is in new condition. I took the photographs with the album still inside the click seal plastic sleeve as I did not wish to damage the inserts. See the photographs.
