Selected titles from the private collection of a music business veteran are now being made available for the first time. Titles offered by this Seller are one-owner and came directly from the pressing plant, record company warehouse, other label reps or record store unless otherwise noted. 

Grading is based on visual inspection.

I package records outside the cover to avoid seam splits.

New and vintage vinyl is hard to grade strictly using eBay’s system because the record and the cover are two different components. Therefore, I call a record new and mint if it is opened but has never been played.  I use the grading category to describe the cover condition.

This is a First Pressing of The Clash's 1977 debut album. It was not released in the US until 1979. It is a UK import on the CBS label. Has a spindle mark on one side. The playing surfaces are clean. The matte single piece board cover has tight seams and shows some storage wear. It is highlighted by fluorescent colors. The original generic inner sleeve is included. This is a one-owner that the Seller got new in 1977. It has been in storage for 43 years.
