*** Embossed Stamped PROMO, Not FOR SALE US 1973, Original First Press - FACTORY SHRINK

*** This may be the INDIANAPOLIS PRESSING, I am not sure.

*** Please excuse the 10 pics I uploaded using my scanner, my camera is on the fritz. Thank you.

*** Under very bright lighting I examined this LP, top to bottom and find this - -

>>> On the Plus Side:

01) No Bar Code - Original 1st Press 1973 (Pic #7 & Pic #8)
02) Embossed Promo - Under the factory shrink, lower left corner front sleeve - reads: NOT FOR SALE PROMOTION USE ONLY (Pic #4 & Pic #9)
03) Top to Bottom - Spine reads:   (Top)  APL1- 0291   PIN UPS   David Bowie   (Bottom) 0598    (Pic #10)
04) Bottom of Back Sleeve reads: RCA MAINMAN, TMK (s) Registered . Marca (s) Registrada (s), RCA Corporation (c) 1973, RCA Records, New York, NY . Printed in U.S.A. (Again, no Bar Code anywhere on this LP)

05) LP sleeve has vinyl exiting to the right, this is totally FACTORY SEALED SHUT - So Inner Sleeve & Vinyl ASSUMED MINT

>>> On the Negative Side: (Just trying to be as accurate as I can here)

*** Flaws ***

01) Small crease in front cover top, directly above the left side of Bowie's head
02) Small ding back side, top left of sleeve, at the edge of the sleeve between the tracks 'Rosalyn' & 'Here Comes The Night'
03) Wear spot, front side, bottom right
04) There are scratches, but under bright lighting and tilting the LP, they appear to be only in the Shrink Wrap, not down into the LP

>>> To the best of my ability, this is what I find. Please review all 10 pics. Thank you.

We don't refund or credit items that may possibly smell of smoke. Sorry.

I've collected David since 1973 and what a trip it has been with this incredible artist and his career.

It was such a shame and incredible loss with his passing. It just seems unreal he is gone.

But what a body of work he has left us to enjoy and new releases to look forward to posthumously in the forecast.

Pay-Pal only please.

Thank you.

Happy Browsing.

RIP David, RIP - Ronno, RIP - Trevor
