Signed by all four band members at the Tower Records on Durant Avenue in Berkeley in 1977. They also signed a copy for me of "Leave Home" which I've listed separately here on Ebay. [EDIT: Sorry, "Leave Home" has just sold as of 9/12/23; the above is now the only signed Ramones item I have left for sale at the moment.]

This is the original 1976 promotional pressing of the Ramones first album, showing the promotional v-shaped corner clipping.

First pressings of this album can be identified by two typos on the A-side label. The first typo is "Blitzkreig Bop" instead of "Blitzkrieg Bop," and the second is "Beat Is On The Brat" instead of "Beat On The Brat." Both of these typos are present here.

The vinyl is NM- with the lightest inaudible scuff visible under a bright light, and an ink number ("5") on the side B label. I listened with a Stax headphone and heard virtually no surface noise anywhere. Really gorgeous.

The autographed sleeve itself I'm calling VG++, as there are some wrinkles to the sleeve.

Included is the original custom inner sleeve, as shown in the photos.

As the original owner and the guy who got the autographs that day, I'll be happy to sign and notarize a COA if the buyer wishes.
