Original 1973 first pressing of “Elton John – Goodbye Yellow Brick Road” on the MCA label – (10003)


This iconic Elton John double album album features the “tri-fold” gatefold cover and the original generic paper sleeves for the vinyls.  

Vinyls are in VG+ or better condition, with one light scuff on one side, and some very light “sleeve scuffs” here & there, nothing deep or that can be felt with a fingernail…vinyls look barely played, with just a few “squiggles” around the spindle holes..original first series labels look great-one has some light “chatter” around the ring, possibly from the pressing..

Cover and inside gatefold are Both VG+ with really nice colors still, some light “creasing”, perhaps from incorrect storage, and some light shelf/edge/ring wear-inside gatefold has great colors too-



Correct inner sleeves still have the original folds/creases from the factory & are in good shape with a couple small slits…


A great addition to your collection!

*If you do the “Buy-it-Now” I’ll do my best to get it to you by Christmas-


USPS Media Mail shipping is $3.85.   Can combine shipping for $1 each additional record-
Vinyl will be placed in it’s own anti-static sheath, separate from its cover, sandwiched between two cardboard spacers & well packed in a standard record mailer, USPS Media Mail


Records have been given a basic cleaning, but I would recommend a proper cleaning to get even better sound and performance!

Of course returns are accepted if item does not match description-Check my feedback, it’s 100% positive! Just a note: These albums come from a "virus-free" home. My heart goes out to those that are affected worldwide. You can be sure that I adhere to the social distancing policy very strongly and will thoroughly clean & pack these items well before shipping.
Thank you for looking,
