Weird Al Yankovic Eat It 12" Black Vinyl LP 1984 Rock N Roll Japan Obi Vintage
Used
Black vinyl LP grades visually around Very Good Plus (VG+) with strong gloss and scattered light sleeve scuffs, faint hairline surface marks, and a few small paper rubs on each side plus minor dust specks that would benefit from a gentle cleaning before play; no deep scratches, warps, cracks, or edge chips are seen and the Rock 'n Roll Records brick-wall center labels are clean and fully legible with light spindle wear and no writing or added stickers. Single-pocket cardboard jacket with attached yellow Japanese-language obi strip grades visually around Very Good Plus (VG+) with mild surface rubbing to the front and back artwork, a soft ring-wear impression, slight corner and edge wear including small rubs at the tips, and light age toning near the white back cover margins but no seam splits or large tears, while the custom picture inner sleeve, fold-out English-lyric sheet, and Japanese-language insert are present and intact with slight age toning and a few minor handling wrinkles
