DAVID BOWIE - THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD LP (OG UK 'DRESS SLEEVE' COPY - 'TONNY' - MERCURY 6338 041)

DAVID BOWIE - THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD LP (OG UK 'DRESS SLEEVE' COPY - 'TONNY' - MERCURY 6338 041). Fantastic to see, very first UK pressing of the iconic 1971 LP from David Bowie. This copy features the controversial and quickly withdrawn 'dress' sleeve and contains the misspelling of Tony Visconti on the labels showing 'Tonny' on both sides. The record is in smart Ex condition, each side displays some inner sleeve transfer ripples, none of which affected playback from a quick sample test. Black/ silver text labels are bright and clean with only minor spindle wear around the centre holes. Matrix/runout: 6338041 1Y//1 ∇ 420 1 1 3 & 2Y//1 ∇ 420 1 1 1. The iconic original textured 'dress' sleeve is in great Ex condition. A lovely clean example displaying only minor age-related edge storage wear. Covers are bright and clean with almost no signs of the commonly seen ring wear. A great example.

Sold for £3,000
