From the archives of a noted Australian rock’n’roll and entertainment historian comes this piece of classic rock music history. The Cure. A Forest 12 Inch Single. Green Vinyl. Australian pressing. Stunn Records. MSD 421. This is the 5.53 A Side amended press of the green vinyl 12 inch that was mispressed (at a 6.42 A Side run-time) as the ridiculously rare New Zealand-distributed green vinyl 12 inch. Record is in Very Good Plus condition, most likely unplayed. M7 cardboard sleeve with glued library label. NOTE: International shipping to Europe and UK will be Express Air Mail (safer); US and Asia will be fine as Standard Air Mail. Please contact me for exact shipping rate. Check my other auctions for rarities and extremities including RARE Aust and international psychedelic, garage, punk, Queen, Kylie and AC/DC items, early Australian and UK rock music newspapers and magazines, cassettes, original promo record company photos, and so much more.

NOTE: Within the green vinyl, there are some black spots. This is part of the vinyl and NOT external mould or marks. There are various on-line resources from previous sales such as Discogs, Popsike and Eil that mention the black spots in their descriptions.
