You are considering a GENTLY USED copy of the U2 classic album The Joshua Tree. This is an original first pressing made in Mexico, and as such, the back cover features the song titles in English as well as Spanish. That make this item a VERY RARE collectors piece which will only increase in value. The sleeve is in VG+ condition with visible ring wear and corner dings. The writing on the front and back of the sleeve is silver in colour as opposed to the typical gold. This does appear to have either been faded by sunlight exposure, or this is one hell of a unique copy of this album! That said, there are NO saw marks, cut-outs, deletion holes or other mark-down defects. The vinyl is also in VG+ condition with the original shine and luster and no marks that I can find. The labels, like the writing on sleeve, do appear to be either faded or silver in colour. I grade conservatively, and I would easily grade the vinyl as NM-, but for the label discoloration . The lyric sheet / poster which originally came with this album is NOT INCLUDED. This LP comes from a smoke free home.
