Description

Original first pressing of Public Image's seminal debut 'album'.  3 12" records in an aluminium film-can type of a tin.
Has white circular paper dividers between the discs. Comes with the single sided track listing printed in red ink. Snowy white with  miniscule curling to corners. 
The records themselves have a red label on one side and a black label on the other.
The film can is rather patinated after 45 years.  I haven't seen one that isn't.
The original sticker on the base says METAL1.
There are remnants of two pieces of sticky tape that held the tin closed all those years ago.
I can't say for certain that the records are un-played, just that I have never played it/them in the 45 years I have had this.
Can't really say much more about this other than it's a bit of a Post Punk Classic. 
I've put it on the listing for a bit less than the last one sold foso good luck!
