You are looking at something truly rare- the impossible-to-find stereo stereo copy of Bob Dylan’s first album. There were fewer copies of this released than the original Mono version. Rarer still is finding a copy as well-preserved as this one. While opened, the record still has the original shrink-wrap almost fully intact, which not only increases the value of the record, but has also helped protect the jacket over the years.

This album was released in 1962 by Columbia and the label # is CS 8579

Matrix in the trail off is xsm55622 1a and xsm55621 1b  

The Vinyl has been graded a strong VG+. There are no heavy scratches, no sleeve burn, no dings, nothing to affect how the record looks or how it sounds. It appears to have been really well taken care of. It also plays through perfectly, with almost no noise, pops or crackling. The label is free of markings, scratches scrapes or dings.

The Sleeve is also a strong VG+. There are a few signs that it has been handled, but for the most part, this album has been stored very carefully. There a small corner ding probably worth noting, but other than that, there is no fading, no ring wear, no tears, stains or deep scuffs. The inner sleeve would be perfect were it not for a small sleeve-split, and the original shrink wrap has a few smudges on it and two small tears where the wrap has peeled away from where it was opened. But I worry that my attempts to be thorough might mislead one into thinking thus record isn’t in wonderful condition.  Remember, a common synonym used by collectors and dealers for "Very Good Plus" is "Excellent!" This record looks great, plays great, and sounds amazing. You will not be disappointed!
