Description

From my personal collection, this is an ultra-rare test pressing of the 1985 Tuxedomoon classic.  I bought this used in about 1989, I think.  The vinyl is PLAY GRADED as a solid VG+, with a few minor pops and ticks here and there.  I played to this in its entirety recently, and it was a great listen.  The packaging is also VG+, though it's a bit hard to grade in the conventional sense.  My guess is it arrived at the record store that sold it to me in a plain white sleeve, and they added the remainder of the packaging.  This consists of a color Xerox added to the front, and additional material added inside.  The color Xerox is of course very old, and so the paper has "warped" a bit and there are some marks where the toner has come unbonded from the paper.  The inner sleeve has a crude photocopied tracklisting and distributor logo taped to one side, and a spot on the other side where the paper has been ripped and repaired with scotch tape.  Based on the stickers on the outside, I must have paid $7 for this back in the day, marked down from an original asking price of $10.  Please see then many hi-res photos for the general lay of the land.  I need to clear out some space, so this rare gem is in search of a new home.

You'll be hard-pressed to find a test pressing of this record at any price...DON'T MISS OUT!
