 Up for auction is a very rare copy of the Billy Bragg album "Worker's Playtime" originally released in the U.S. on Elektra Records (9-60824-1) in 1988.  This is a guaranteed, original U.S. first pressing, not a cheap reissue like most for sale on eBay.  Includes original inner sleeve with lyrics, and it's in beautiful condition.  This copy is also a rare white label promotional copy, and a limited edition audiophile pressing.  Very rare as such.  Arguably Billy Bragg's greatest album.

Cover is in beautiful condition, with almost no signs of previous wear or handling.  Front is nice and glossy, no ring wear.  Does have a factory cut out mark in upper left corner, as do many of these copies.  Corners are good, though lower left is slightly bumped.  Light crease in lower left.  Back is clean.  Seams are strong, no splits, virtually no rubbing losses.  Very attractive cover.  Grade the cover Near Mint Minus (NM-).

Vinyl is in beautiful condition, very shiny with its original gloss and luster.  Virtually clean, though it does have one very light on the first track on Side Two--but it can't be felt, and it doesn't affect the beautiful sound quality on my turntable.  Labels are clean, no marks around spindle holes, indicating little previous play.  I've owned this copy since new, and it's been played only once, then archived; thus the clean condition.  Grade the vinyl Near Mint Minus (NM-).  Very nice copy.
