3 LP BOX SET Frank Zappa Joe's Garage Acts 1,2 & 3 (1987 PRE-RELEASE REVIEW COPY

$

45

Here's a rare find for Zappa Fans:  This is an advance promotional copy sent to me at a music magazine where I worked during the 1980's, from a friend at the record label.  Since it was sent pre-release, and judging by the mastering inscriptions on the vinyl, it is likely to be a first pressing of the newly-created 1987 masters.

It was played once in order to write the record review, and was put into archive where is has remained unplayed for the last 26 years!  Discs, inner sleeves, record jackets/booklets, and the included 'Barfko-Swill' product catalog, are near mint condition, with no signs of use or wear (vinyl could use a cleaning, for especially picky audiophiles...).  Outer box is in VG-plus to excellent condition, with one small (1/2") abrasion on the top spine, and some corner wear from being in my collection and looked at by my curious friends over the years...see pics.

YOU WON'T BE DISAPPOINTED WITH THE CONDITION OF THIS ITEM!
