CHRYSALIS RECORDS 1972 Promo Only 5 LP BOX SET Jethro Tull STEELEYE SPAN Etc.
ULTRA RARE, TO ANNOUNCE CHRYSALIS US LAUNCH Tir Na Nog
Here’s something we’ve never seen before—a 5 LP box set created by Warner Bros. to announce the 1972 launch of Chrysalis Records in the United States. The deluxe box has a padded front and back cover with the Chrysalis logo stamped in gold on the front. Inside is a 8 page booklet announcing the launch and detailing each of the 5 albums contained within. There are 5 discs, all white label promos, all stamped “Advance Pressing” on the A-Side labels. They include Jethro Tull’s double album “Living In The Past”, Steeleye Span’s “ Below The Salt”, Tir Na Nog’s “A Tear and a Smile” and Wild Turkey’s “Turkey”. When we obtained this it was sealed, but we had to open it to see exactly what was inside. But all the contents and discs are in mint unplayed condition, and the box in Near Mint condition.

We welcome International buyers and ship around the world every week.
US & Canada Shipping: $9 for 1-2 LP's by insured Priority Mail (Ebay’s recent rule change requires us to offer Media Mail shipping for records, at $4.00 for 1 LP. As this is a very slow method of shipping and uninsured, we cannot guarantee safe delivery by this method and strongly recommend paying extra for the much quicker and safer Priority Mail.) $15 for 1-2 posters, shipped priority mail in a new mailer/tube & US orders are automatically insured for up to $200 in value. Calif. buyers add 8.75% sales tax (calculated automatically by Paypal.) All other items shipped at cost.
International Shipping: $16 for 1 LP airmail without insurance. $4 for each additional LP; $21 for 1-2 posters. All other items shipped at cost. Because of problems with the Italian Post Office, we highly recommend either insured or registered mail for all Italian orders and cannot be responsible for any order shipped to Italy without one or the other of these. 625 (GS 6.9.7 (625))
