Description

                                                DESCRIPTION

ARTIST:                                HUMBLE PIE

TITLE:                                      “EAT IT ”

PRESSING:              1973 Original “FIRST” Pressing STEREO 2 LP Set with the rare A&M promotional “play list” insert along the left side of the back cover (see photo).

CATALOG #:           A&M  SP 3701

Comments:                Includes a Mint 18-page booklet affixed to the inside of the gatefold cover. This album is Extremely RARE Sealed !!

                                   

                                                CONDITION  ( Please refer to Grading Standards below)

COVER:                    NrMT-

Comments:                Extremely clean “gatefold” cover displays bright vivid colors with tight original factory shrink wrap. No ring wear beneath the shrink, No seam splits, No cut out marks, or bar codes. Slight corner wear and associated tiny tears in the shrink, along with a small piece of shrink missing in lower left corner (lower right corner of the back cover – see photographs) are the only minor flaws and mentioned for accuracy. There is also a “promotional” hole in the upper right corner that does Not go through the inner sleeves beneath, and is covered by the original shrink wrap!! There is absolutely No separation of the shrink along the opening side of the album, which is quite rare for a double LP!

VINYL:                      Heavy “thick” vinyl, presumed MINT (Sealed)

Comments:                Catalog number indicates “First” Pressing “Tan” A&M labels – Not the Budget-line reissue of 1981, which had the catalog number SP-6503.

Please note:                This album is being listed and sold as a “Sealed” collectible LP. If the buyer decides to break the seal on the opening side, or any other margin of the album, I will NOT accept the return of the LP. Please know this in advance.

I am very conservative with my grading.  There is NO ADDITIONAL CHARGE for multiple LPs won in the same auction cycle.  Payment is due within 72 hours of the end of the auction.  e-mail if you have any questions prior to placing a bid.  All of my LPs come with a protective poly album sleeve and will be shipped in a sturdy cardboard LP mailer, tightly wrapped in bubble wrap for added protection.

Shipping:  $4.00 Media Mail.  If you purchase multiple LPs in this auction cycle, please wait to make payment until I adjust the eBay invoice to reflect one shipping cost.

PLEASE NOTE:  I ship to the United States only!!  NO International bids will be accepted, no exceptions – I will NOT ship overseas.
