Description

Very rare, hard-to-find first pressing version of Piece of Mind with the song "To Tame A Land" with it's original name "Dune" on the label. Most Maiden fans know the story of Frank Herbert not allowing Maiden to use the song title 'Dune', so they changed it at the last minute. However, the Italians didn't get the memo and printed 'Dune' on the label.
The sleeve is a gatefold, and bears the song title 'To Tame a Land' on the lyrics - so the 'Dune' song name only appears on the label. Please see close up pictures showing label and sleeve being printed/pressed in Italy.
The record is a solid VG with typical defects. The vinyl is VG. There are some long scratches as seen in the photo, but no skips. I have specifically played this on two turntables before listing this album to make sure those scratches didn't cause any problems: a newer Audio-Technica and a vintage Empire. If you have an old cartridge, it will play with some noise, but a newer cart will play it with very little noise.
Will ship with album outside of sleeve, in rigid toploader and archival Mylite in an oversized box.
Shipping:
NO INTERNATIONAL SHIPPING - NO EXCEPTIONS. Unfortunately, foreign bidders represent about 98% of my unpaid auctions and Ebay does not allow them to be reported, so if you don't live in the USA, sorry. I am a comic collector and have been shipping comic books, records and artwork for 23 years on Ebay - Your comics will be packed in a box accordingly to ensure it arrives to you safe and sound.
You will be provided a tracking number by Ebay.
Payment:
Please pay within 4 days. After 72 hours, eBay automatically opens a case and will cancel the auction and I will relist. Unfortunately, I do not have time to police this on behalf of Ebay, so If you can’t pay within 4 days, please do not bid. 
I’m not responsible for any state sales taxes - Ebay does this on their own accord. Please factor this into your purchase. This is a new thing for Ebay and I have had multiple problems with non-paying bidders not wanting to pay additional money on the auction due to the sales tax.

Feedback Policy:
I strive for 100% satisfaction with all of my listings. I try to list all information and details regarding the item sold, but please understand mistakes happen, and I am not in charge of the post office. I am also not Amazon - if you have a porch pirate problem, it is your responsibility to accept your packages or make arrangements with your postal carrier to deliver when you’re home. If you’d like to pay for Signature Confirmation, I am happy to do that and let you know what that fee is - YOU ABSOLUTELY MUST DO THIS BEFORE PAYING, I can add the cost and send you an invoice with the new charges. If everything went well - it will be greatly appreciated if you leave accurate feedback and ratings regarding your transaction, I’ll do the same. If you've read this far, congratulations - you are one of the few people left in the world that still has a brain.
