I am the drummer of the heavy metal band "Cirith Ungol" and I have a limited number of these very, very, rare covers (only) of our first album "Frost & Fire", which was released over 40 years ago! I did the layout and design of the cover and since we released our first album on our own, I had saved a few of the covers. These measure 12 5/16" x 12 5/8" and would be perfect for replacing that old beat up cover. The colors are bright as the day it was printed and these have been stored in a dry smoke free location for over 42 years! If wanted I can get it signed by three of the original members an personalized. I will throw in a bunch other rare items for anyone who buys one of these! If you're a fan or collector of the band here's a rare chance to pick up one of these extremely rare and unique items! For the first five buyers I will throw in one of the original album inserts a few which I saved and are also like new!! Note: Some of these have a few small scratches on the backside as you can see in the photo but that's how they came from the factory. I will send out the ones in the best condition first!
Of course it features the unparalleled artwork of Michael Whelan, whose epic painting "Stormbringer" graced the cover! There's a lot of confusion about what version of our album covers was the first, but this was "it", with the catalog number #13666! I will ship these safely, but in order to get it to the buyer safely, I will need special packaging. I am including that in the shipping price. Of course there is no album included and all sales are final. Check out my other auctions I may have some other band memorabilia from time to time.
The pandemic has been hard on everyone in the music industry, canceled tours, concerts etc. so pick up one of these to help support true metal music! "A Churning Maelstrom of Metal Chaos Descending!"
Thanks for looking, and try to get out and catch one of our rare appearances!
