Description
The Residents original limited edition 1974 album: Meet the Residents Ralph Records RR0274 Mono First Edition
Limited to 1000 copies
Album looks unplayed and glossy still after 43 years. For this reason I grade it as NM using Goldmine standards; the sleeve has no splits and is in excellent shape with the exceptions of some slight discoloration due to aging at the top of the front cover and a few light scratches/minor crease around top left front cover. For these reasons I grade the cover as VG+ using Goldmine standards. Please see the photos for actual item. Kind questions are always welcomed!
This sale is open to domestic and International delivery! Free economy shipping to all USA addresses. If you require shipping methods other than media mail, additional options are always available.
International shipping charges are actual costs based on your location as calculated by ebay shipping calculator. I do combine shipping charges for international bidders. Please do not pay until I send you an invoice. I will always try to make costs as minimal as possible. I make no profit in shipping.
All packages are recycled professional record mailers; purchases will always be packaged professionally and securely. Packages will be hand delivered to the USPS within 24 hours of received payment. Guaranteed!
