Very nice copy of the original 1970 first pressing of the Dead's classic American Beauty LP on Warner Brothers WS-1893. Original green shield labels with Warner inner sleeve. This is a lovely copy. The disc has a few superficial scuffs but it plays near flawlessly and just beautifully. The cover has some light ringwear, and some edge and corner wear. The spine is intact and readable but it is fraying. The top edge also has a seam split a little less than halfway across. Somewhat worn but not nearly as much as most original copies. Really still quite nice, as you can see. In any case it's a lovely playing original.
