Apple AP - 8147

 

Appendices: “Different F/B Cover”, “Insert”, “Inner-Bag” & “Red Wax”

( OBI is missing )

 

Description: This is scarce Japanese Apple Edition 1st Press copy ( released in early 1970’s ) of their ost album ( in Japan ), comin' with very rare red-wax disc. The disc is beautiful red-wax, issued only for its early press. The cover is flipped back on its top & bottom-rims, showing “Japanese description” on the back. It’s different from UK copy. Though obi is missing, it’s still hard to find this item with red-wax even in my country nowadays. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.

 

Condition: VG/VG+ ( Cover / Disc )  

 

COVER: Cover is good in condition, except for partly worn right-edge. It’s creased around the rims with light ring-wear on the front & back. Otherwise it has no tear, strip, dent, stain & writing...OK. 

DISC: Disc is good in condition, keeping glossy. It has several slight scuffs on Side A and in part with a slight hairline on Side B. There’re several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scratch, which is to be rated as "VG+".

OBI: OBI is missing. 

INSERT: G+, being lightly creased, and stained in brown in right top corner of front & left top of back.  

INNER-BAG: G+, being creased in corners with ring-crease on the surface of each side.
