Up for bid is a rare LP, "Black Ark," by Noah Howard. This is an import from Germany, released by Freedom (48-426-5 U) in 1972. Stamped matrix info reads A-0736 A-1 C3A with Made in Germany stamped on the opposite side of the matrix area / A-0736 B-1 C3A with Made in Germany stamped on the opposite side of the matrix area. LP is a solid VG+, with some light scuffs and a couple of tiny light scratches. Interior labels are very clean. LP appears very clean and retains a nice gloss. There is some light surface noise (crackle, tics, and some light pops) which may be reduced with a professional clean. Gatefold jacket is VG+, with no seam splits. However, the bottom portion of the jacket needs to be re glued, as the bottom seam has separated. There is no damage in the area, it is just that the old glue no longer holds this area together (see pictures). There is some wear in the center of the bottom seam. There is light wear on all corners. Jacket retains bright coloring. Overall, this set is in really nice condition! Don't miss this rare gem! We will pack this securely for safe delivery - this will be a little heavy due to the inserts we put in the LP mailer. Domestic delivery will be via USPS media mail including a tracking number. International delivery is First Class International.
