ITEM
DETAILS :
The 1st pressing of Grace after it's original small and extremely hard to find 1994 Euro pressing, Thus the first "repress" of this and the first time Simply Vinyl made their version of it, in 1999. This is still sealed. I have never opened or played it. IF careful, the owner of any Simply Vinyl release can get the sticker off, I know because I have other simply vinyl pressings that I have peeled sticker off to look inside and/or play and I have resealed it like it was new. I would not sell those as "new" though. So, just letting you know, it can be done. I did look inside another copy of this that was open to see if anything was different with inner sleeve and label etc. But that was not this copy. Several people I worked with bought copies at the same time and I got to look inside those and keep my copy, this copy, pristine and sealed.
A sealed one of these has not come up for sale on this site (and others) since 2013 as far as I can see. Although it's possible one was sold on Amazon during this time.
"This Repress sourced from the original 1994 Sony/CBS, Haarlem stampers of Grace. "
how does that work? Well I would have done the same thing if I was reissuing this then. Those original stampers they used for the first 1994 press can't have more than a few thousand uses (someone told me they only made 600 but I do not believe that at all) and they would still be in fine shape to use to press more. I'd take those stampers rather than make new ones from...which master? the one CBS let you have or can find for a third party vinyl only company also doing a small "limited" pressing? you KNOW these stampers were made from the right master tape ya know? so..cool.
overall, there are no issues to see or mention besides one flap folded over on back.
SLEEVE - Mint, sealed VINYL: MINT

*******As
a longtime seller AND buyer of LPs through the mail…We use oversized mailers with "air cells" on the left and right of the LP to
ensure no corner damage. We always ship the the vinyl outside of the
sleeve (if not sealed) and pack the inner sleeve separately if necessary
to insure it gets no seam split in travel. Also, if not obvious, we do not use the term Mint for open product. near mint is the top grade even if perfect unless we are only owner and know we didn't play it..
