Description

Here is a great Beatles related album for your collection.   

John Lennon - Two Virgins: Unfinished Music No. 1. - Apple label #T-5001 stereo from 1968.  This is probably the most controversial album ever made, at least the cover is.  The front of the cover shows John and Yoko standing naked facing the camera, the back cover shows them standing backwards looking towards the camera.  A "brown bag" sleeve comes with the album.  I covered up their "private" areas, when taking the picture, with a piece of paper for the obvoius reasons. 

This is a RARE album, because very few were sold.  It was released on November 11, 1968 and when the first shipment of the albums reached the U.S. it was seized by Customs and impounded.  There was an obscenity trial held and the record company lost it's case.  The album could only be sold in a brown paper wrapper.  Only a few thousand were ever sold. 

The vinyl and labels are in EXCELLENT condition, almost NEAR MINT except for one scuff and a couple minor scratches. The cover is in EXCELLENT condition, almost NEAR MINT, except for very slight edge wear in one or two places and slight discoloration, due to the white color of the cover. The inner sleeve, brown wrapper, has seam splits top and bottom, a few small tears and "175" written in black grease pencil on front.

If you have any questions please contact me as soon as possible, don't wait until a few hours before the auction ends, as I may not be checking it very often.

All vinyl will be shipped outside the jacket in paper or plastic inner sleeves, both jackets and records will be inside clear plastic or mylar sleeve.  

Shipping and handling cost is $5.00 anywhere in U.S. (lower 48 states).   Anywhere other than this area, please email me with costs before you bid.  The cost includes postage and delivery confirmation, the eBay insertion fee and the BAGS UNLIMITED box.  I still absorb the additional fees that are deducted from the selling price, (10% of the selling price) and for those of you who pay with PayPal, another 5% fee is charged to me.  I don't make any money on the shipping and handling costs.  If I only get one bid, eBay and the Post Office make more than I do on the deal.  I do combine shipping and handling fees for multiple items purchased.  Any questions, contact me before bidding.  Thanks.

I ship in boxes made for LP's.  I ship Media Mail with Delivery Confirmation unless buyer specifies, and pays for, something else. Insurance is optional, at buyers expense. Email me if you want insurance added.

I accept PayPal, cash, cashiers check, money orders and personal checks.  If paying by personal check, I will hold item for 10 days to make sure it clears before shipping. 

Satisfaction guaranteed!  I use the Goldmine Record Album Price Guide in grading my albums.  If you feel the item is not how I described it, return it in the same condition for a full refund. Please do not leave negative feedback if not satisfied with the item purchased.  I do everything I can to grade the items as conservatively as possible, but sometimes I might miss something someone else sees.  Again, money back guarantee if not satisfied with the item.
