Tool Ænima (SEALED; 1st pressing; 1996)  2 x LP housed in a Gatefold Jacket with gorgeous artwork & printed inner sleeves  ZOO/BMG
Greetings.  Many thanks for taking time out of your day to view my listing.  It is a foregone conclusion that, if you are reading this, you know the gravity associated with this seminal prog-rock 2 x LP released on wax in 1996.  This item has been faithfully stored in a custom-cut archival polyester (Mylar) jacket provided by www.conservationresources.com (CR) The sealed album lays atop a custom-cut MicroChamber board for pro-active archival storage - MicroChamber also provided by CR.  I learned of CR when researching archival thresholds / standards as prescribed by the Library of Congress (LOC).  The LOC cited CR in addition to a host of other companies as a supplier of archival products.
I purchased this item in '96 from a friend who worked in the local indie record store.  This item comes from a smoke-free, animal-free environment.  This album has seen numerous counterfeits continuing to this very day.  Fortunately, this is a genuine article.  Please research for yourself as to the history of this album.
Several sellers make reference to the Tool Vinyl Buyer's Guide.  This is a decent starting place for research; however, it is merely a recitation of the information found on discogs.com  I am a member (1dumdum) of discogs.com - please check out my collection and contact me if interested in anything:  https://www.discogs.com/user/1dumdum/collection
Please find below additional information regarding this item, as provided by discogs.com.  Specifically, copy and paste the following into a web browser of your choice:  https://www.discogs.com/Tool-%C3%86nima/release/534940
Please ask questions, and examine the photos for yourself to determine the grade of this sealed item.  For an item that is 20+ years old, I feel this sealed item is in fantastic shape - there is a small crease in the upper right-hand corner of the front of the jacket, and the top/bottom spine corners appear to be a result of the jacket design.  I do not offer refunds on items I sell, so please examine the pictures well, and feel free to contact me with any questions.    
I have priced this album to sell as fast as possible.  I loathe doing so, however, I am in need of some quick cash.  I will be listing more of my vinyl collection - stay tuned!
