*Comments: There are 121 versions of this LP. This is the true 1st 1979 US Warner Brothers, YELLOW LABEL, pressing and release. The US Yellow Label is rare. Don't be fooled by the regular WB label. That was NOT the first pressing/release. The cover is in Mint condition, perfect. The vinyl is E++ to Near Mint with only very minor signs of play. The labels are E++ to Near Mint. See the photos above. See discogs confirmation of this lp at: discogs.com/The-B-52s-The-B-52s/master/53856

Source Collection
This record, and all other vinyl records that I have listed for sale were personally collected and purchased, by me, for a premium, Mint/NearMint/E collection of rock, pop and mainstream lps. This collection took over four years to accomplish and most lps were purchased at record shows. All lps are true collector quality and were carefully selected based on the artist/title, rarity or the release and/or pressing, cover condition, insert condition, vinyl condition and play quality. Please view my other items listed for more lps from this collection.

Grading
For grading purposes, I follow the Goldmine standard grading system:

Mint (M)
Near Mint (NM or M-)
Excellent (E +/-)
Very Good (VG +/-)
Good (G)
Fair (F)
Poor (P)

I grade honestly and fairly. As Goldmine states, please note that it is agreed by industry and professional graders that true Mint (M) condition is a rumored but rarely seen reality. Hence, a Mint grading should almost never be used for either a cover or vinyl, and you should be very suspect of anyone who routinely lists "Mint" lps, even if they are new.

Cover Protection
All lps come with a clear, premium 3 mil thick outer sleeve for protection and presentation.

Shipping
Lps will be carefully packaged in quality lp shipping boxes. I will combine shipping, so if you intend to purchase two or more lps, please contact me first via ebay messaging, and I will provide you with the combined shipping cost. I ship to the U.S. only (excluding Alaska and Hawaii). No international shipping.

Returns
If you do not agree with the grading of the lp and want to return the record, I will gladly return your purchase price (minus shipping cost). Just please notify me of your intention upon receiving the lp, and once I receive the returned lp, I will gladly refund your purchase price. I do not provide partial refunds, and do require return of the lp. Please note that I take great pride in the records and other items that I sell and that I have never had an unhappy customer, nor have I ever had an item returned to me. Not ever.
