Description

For sale is the prized piece of my record collection- Elliott Smith's debut album "Roman Candle"- the original test pressing LP on 180gram vinyl.  This album was originally pressed by Domino Records in the UK- in an edition of 1,000 back in the 90's.  Of course, this is the test press for that pressing so there was likely something like 5 of these made before it was mass produced.  There was not an equivalent US pressing of this album until recently.  In other words, this is the rarest of the rare pressing.

I'm listing the record for $200 less than I paid for it years ago despite the fact that its become even more sought after and is in the same condition.  This is an amazing piece for the Elliott Smith fan.  Thanks for looking.

Cover:   NM : original inner sleeve with test pressing label

Vinyl:  NM
