BOB DYLAN s/t LP 1st Original 1962 US Columbia MONO 6-Eye CL-1779 Vinyl RARE NM
Original 1962 U.S. pressing on Columbia Records (CL 1779)
Vinyl
Columbia CL 1779 (USA), first commercial release, second variant - (first track correctly titled and listed above centre hole).
The "6-eye" label was discontinued by Columbia after this album, so no other Dylan album has it. Good copies with the "6-eye" labels are very rare nowadays.
The record labels have the first song listed above the centre hole. The record has matrix numbers: Side 1 - XLP-55619-1D, Side 2 - XLP-55620-1D and comes in the blue and white inner sleeve.
Record: Nice bright vinyl with good sheen and only a few light sleeve removal hairlines, EX.Rare early label design, dead wax stamped -1D / -1D
Plays very well throughout, with no skips or jumps and clear dynamic audio.
Sleeve
Only one guitar tuning peg is visible at the top right of the mono front sleeve. Detail of rear bottom right with "8". "8" indicates that the sleeve was fabricated by Modern Album Finishing Co., probably at Terre Haute, IN.
The front and rear panels have beautiful vivid colour, with sharp printing. The spine has some fraying at the top and near the top and bottoms, but the 'Bob Dylan' text is still readable. There is some shelf wear to the edges and fraying to the top edge. The original Columbia company sleeve is clean, but has some seam splits to the three edges.
