This item is not for sale. Gripsweat is an archive of past sales and auctions, none of the items are available for purchase.
For sale is an original 1977 pressing of David Bowie's "Heroes" LP. Sleeve printed in the UK and vinyl pressed in Italy as stated on back of the sleeve. It has original Italian tan coloured labels. Presumably this was due to the oil crisis in the 70s.

Sleeve is Near Mint. Almost perfect. A couple of tiny creases about 4mm at the spine. Otherwise superb. You won't find one better.
Photo just shows glare from lights not marks.
Inner Sleeve: Near Mint with a single crease over the corner.
Vinyl: Near Mint, really difficult to see anything on this. Again the best I've ever seen.
