Description

"In the Aeroplane Over the Sea”

NEUTRAL MILK HOTEL 

NOTE: THIS IS THE VERY FIRST PRESS. IT HAS THE GREEN BIAS FRONT COVER DESIGN, OFF-WHITE LABELS WITH THE MORE DETAILED VICTROLA SPEAKER, INSERT WITH SEQUENTIAL TRACK LISTINGS & MRG136LP IN WHITE AT TOP OF SPINE. I PURCHASED IT DURING WINTER 1998 AT PAUL'S CDs IN THE BLOOMFIELD NEIGHBORHOOD OF PITTSBURGH. I HAVE ONLY PLAYED IT A HANDFUL OF TIMES BECAUSE I PURCHSED IT ON CD A FEW MONTHS LATER. UNFORTUNATELY, I REMOVED THE SHRINK WRAP (WITH THE STICKER) AND THREW IT AWAY AT TIME OF PURCHASE. THE FIRST PRESSING WAS JUST 1600 VINYL LPS. DISCOGS HAS A VERY GOOD PAGE THAT DISPLAYS THE SUBTLE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE FIRST SIX PRESSINGS (matrix codes are the same on all these pressings, so there are only a few distinguishable differences)   

1998 First Press 33rpm LP Green Bias Cover, Off-White Labels MERGE RECORDS MRG 136LP            

Vinyl: EX condition; glossy standard-weight vinyl; very clean! just a few minor superficial surface handling marks; sounds great!    

Cover: EX condition; colorful, sturdy cardboard jacket; minor edge & corner-wear (see photos).

+ Original insert with sequential track listing and illustration

Also comes with rounded white paper inner sleeve and a new poly-vinyl dust cover.  

 

My Grading Scale: NM / EX / VG+ / VG / G

SHIPPING NOTE: I do not profit from shipping charges! I provide new poly-vinyl dust covers & inner sleeves for every item, and pack in strong cruciform mailers (or a waterproof padded bubble-lined envelope for 7-inches) with both cardboard & bubble wrap protective inserts. This costs me close to an additional $2 for each item. I also purchase tracking for every location where the USPS offers it.
