U2 LP War 1983 On Island Gatefold Vintage Vinyl-First US Pressing!

Original owner. Hasn’t been heard in decades as I put it on cassette…multiple times as every recording was stolen by some passenger. This was the B-side and Boy was the A-side. A coveted cassette apparently.

Selling off my indie record collection to pay my student loans. Nearly 30 years worth! Tough times…

Ships in a dedicated box. See my other listings.

Comes with a manhole cover magnet made by Rethinktankdesign
