Original 100% guaranteed true 1st US Stereo pressing factory sealed copy of Bob Dylan’s 6th studio album released by Columbia Records on August 30, 1965. We believe that this copy contains the alternate take of “From a Buick 6” with a longer harmonica intro. Even the earliest copies have a cover with the corrected “Meaningless” misprint. The 1st print cover of this copy still contains the uncorrected “Meaningful” misprint. Without any doubts, this copy is the true “1st day” pressing in a fantastic factory sealed condition with the fully intact shrink wrap containing the original breathe holes. The front cover has the original promotional hit single “Featuring LIKE A ROLLING STONE” hype sticker measuring 3 5/16” x 1.5”. The sticker, which is present only on the 1st pressing copies, promotional and commercial, serves as another undeniable proof that this copy is the 1st Stereo release with the “-1A”, “-1B”, “-1C” or “1D” matrix numbers. The cover printed by Modern Album Finishing Co., probably at Terre Haute, IN, contains the “7” number in the lower right-hand corner on the back. It’s guaranteed that the vinyl of this copy you’ll find inside contains the red Columbia Records 2-eye “360 Sound” Stereo labels with the catalog number CS-9189 located above the “Nonbreakable” banner.  Outstanding factory sealed copy in Mint condition.
