Description



JOHN LENNON & YOKO ONO - 'UNFINISHED MUSIC No.1 - TWO VIRGINS'
Here is a rare opportunity to acquire a MINT example one of the most infamous and controversial album covers of all time.

This pristine, fully laminated example was manufactured by independent printer 'Technink Limited' to house the MONO version of the LP.

The text is printed on the front panel as opposed to the stereo cover where it is on the rear panel.

N.B. This auction is for the cover ONLY.


CONDITION

MINT

This exceptional example is in the same condition as it left the factory 44 years ago. Both front & rear panels are pristine white and perfectly clean, free from any foxing or any other age-wear. There are no 'thumbnail' wrinkles or any creasing to any part, including the edges and spine.

All corners are sharp, square and completely unworn ,as are both of the opening edges.

There is some lifting to the laminate along the rear spine edge which is a common manufacturing issue for this cover and not a result of wear. The unworded spine and both seams are smooth, unstressed and unworn.

A 100% investment-grade item.
