THE DOORS - THE SOFT PARADE
ELEKTRA EKS-75005 STEREO
ORIGINAL 1969 U.S. 1ST PRESSING WITH THE GOLD LABELS!
COVER - Beautiful NM- cover still in factory shrink with rare sticker! There are 2 breathe holes in the shrink on front and the remnants of a price sticker on front also. Just a small amount of wear on the cornertips where shrink has worn, 2 places along the top seam where there is a small amount of shrink missing and one place has a tiny bit of wear, 1 tiny tear in the shrink near top of spine, both sides have just a small amount of light ringwear. The custom inner lyric sleeve is NM with the only flaw being a 1 inch split in the middle of 1 side. The wear on this cover is very minor and it will be a long time before another one this nice comes along!
RECORD - NM! Vinyl has full gloss just like brand new! I could only barely see a couple very light marks when held under a bright light, the condition is simply amazing! Sounded great on my system with no skips and I only heard 2 "crackles" in between songs. The labels are NM with no writing and no spindle wear. This record hasn't been played more than a few times! These gold label pressings are so hard to find, very few exist today! Elektra was switching to the red label when this lp first came out and so not many were made with the gold labels. This is a top copy here folks! Don't miss out on this rare gem!!!
PACKAGING
I package all my records in quality record mailers using bubblewrap and the finest packaging tape money can buy! I also package with cover inside a plastic sleeve and the vinyl outside the cover to prevent any damage to the seams. All vinyl is cleaned prior to listing.
SHIPPING
Shipping cost in the United States will be $4.00 regular mail and $1.00 for each additional lp. If you prefer Priority mail please let me know and I will invoice you with a shipping total as this option varies by location. Shipping cost outside the U.S. is more and will vary by location so if you are an international buyer please wait for my invoice.
PAYMENT
I accept paypal only, I do not accept checks. I also expect payment within 4 days of the end of the auction. Thanks and happy bidding!!!
