DAVID BOWIE - THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD LP (UK ORIGINAL 'DRESS SLEEVE' - 'TONNY' CREDIT - MERCURY 6338 041).

DAVID BOWIE - THE MAN WHO SOLD THE WORLD LP (UK ORIGINAL 'DRESS SLEEVE' - 'TONNY' CREDIT - MERCURY 6338 041). Superb to see very well presented original UK stereo pressing of the legendary 'dress sleeve' LP of David Bowie's 1971 album The Man Who Sold The World. With original misprinted label credits as 'Tonny Visconti' on both sides. The record (6338 041 1Y//1 ▽420 1 1 2 & 2Y//1 ▽420 1 1 1 machine stamped matrix/runouts) is in great Ex condition showing only a couple of very light and minor surface hairline marks, none of which are ever heavier in nature without any feelable scratches. Sharp labels with some light spindle marks. The original textured sleeve is in very neat VG+ condition showing some of the usual edgewear which is commonplace with this release, the spine is almost entirely legible. The main image of Bowie on the front is in sharp and clean order with a small light scuff roughly half way down the sleeve. The reverse is also in sharp order with a little foxing. Lovely copy.

Sold for £1,400
