Ultimate Spinach - S/T 1968 US FIRST PRESS (MGM SE-4518) GATE-FOLD VINYL VG/VG+ 


This is a very rare US first press on Ultimate Spinach's debut self titled album on MGM records.


The vertical gate-fold sleeve is in very good condition with some shelf wear along the corners/slight discolouration along the edge & a small seam split along the top edge. (See pics), 


The vinyl is in VG + + condition and plays wonderfully with very little (if any) background noise & has no pops/clicks throughout.


The original inner does have a split along the right hand side. 


It is a first press & has the relevant matrix/runout (see below & Discogs link....)
