This is the First UK Pressing for Paul's Boutique from 1989. It it has the inner picture sleeve with lyrics on one side, and the iconic Ricky Powell photo on the other. Check my other listings if you are looking for other versions.
For Collectors... This is super nerdy, but I want to make sure the one you want is the one you get. First pressings of this release have unique run out grooves. All subsequent copies have additional info added. The best way to make certain that you get the first press is by checking these things... 1) The first press has the bar code in the upper right of the back sleeve not the upper left. 2) The upper right of the front sleeve should have the stylized Beastie Boys logo. 3) The spine should have EST 2102 only listed as the catalog number. 4) The A side vinyl run out grooves should have EST 2102 A-1-1-1- stamped into the run out grooves 5) The B side vinyl run out grooves should have EST 2102 B-1-1-1- (followed by the number 2 etched). Subsequent releases are modeled after this release. The disc itself is Excellent (visually graded) with some small scratches that shouldn't affect play. All scans are of the actual item. I am listing this one at what I think it is worth. You can find another cheaper, but probably not for the first press, and certainly not with this level of clarification.
If you are interested in collecting Beastie Boys vinyl from any era, you should add me to your favorite sellers list. I'm finishing up listing the items I have for Paul's Boutique in the next couple of weeks with great copies of the album including foreign pressings, test pressings, re pressings.
For international buyers, the package weight is .58kg. I will ship it however you like, but do not bid based on the shipping cost of $4.00 USPS Media Mail.
