Description
DESCRIPTION
ARTIST: BOB DYLAN
TITLE: “BRINGING IT ALL BACK HOME”
PRESSING: 1965 Original “FIRST” Pressing MONO LP with rare COLUMBIA “For Demonstration Use Only – Not For Sale” sticker affixed to the label
CATALOG #: COLUMBIA CL 2328
LABELS: Extremely clean “Red” labels with “COLUMBIA” in white along top. “GUARANTEED HIGH FIDELITY” in Black along bottom.
Comments: Super Scarce First Pressing Mono LP to locate in wonderful condition
CONDITION ( Please refer to Grading Standards below)
COVER: Strong VG+
Comments: Very clean glossy “pastedown” cover displays bright, vivid colors with ever so slight, barely noticeable ring wear near the top and bottom of the cover (see photograph). No marks or writing, No major creasing, No seam splits, and No cut out marks, discount holes or bar codes. Light corner wear and a few minor paper wrinkles adjacent to the spine are the only minor flaws and mentioned for accuracy. Overall, this is a clean cover considering the amount of “white” used for both sides of the cover.
VINYL: Side 1 NrMT- Side 2 VG++
Comments: Glossy “Thick” vinyl with a few minor rubs and some insignificant faint hairlines (No scratches) - less on side 1 than side 2 - seen mainly under bright light from sliding in and out of the original inner sleeve. The album has been play tested and plays very nicely throughout the entire recording.
INNER SLEEVE: LP comes with an older style “shades of blue” heavy paper inner sleeve used by COLUMBIA during the late fifties and early sixties, possibly because this album was a promotional release to the radio stations and never intended to be sold at retail?
Comments: “First” pressing Mono copies of this popular Bob Dylan release are extremely difficult to locate this nice. LP features many classic early Bob Dylan songs including “Subterranean Homesick Blues”, “Love Minus Zero/No Limit”, “Gates Of Eden”, “It’s Alright, Ma (I’m Only Bleeding)”, and of course one of his biggest hits ever “Mr. Tambourine Man”!!
I have listed many more pristine First and second pressing Bob Dylan albums from the “sixties” this week, so please check out my other auctions!
