1ST PRESS US EDITION

* * MINT * *

COLLECTORS WELCOME

This is a pristine sealed copy of an original US first press edition of the 1965 London Records release of The Rolling Stones NOW! PS-420 Stereo LP. It is still in its original factory sealed plastic shrink wrap (with air hole visible on back side). Never handled, never used, never played. This is a rare gem for legit Stones collectors. It's condition is like 99% MINT. I have tried to provide you with views, including close-ups, from every angle so you can see for yourself. As an early release, this LP is more than 50 years old, and I would argue its as close to perfect as you'll find. Highly collectable and definitely worth the investment for serious collectors.

RECORD SLEEVE: MINT/NEAR MINT

The front and back covers of the album’s jacket in are pristine. The corners are all sharp and still protected by the original factory seal. The only flaw is so small you can not see it from the front side, but if you flip the album over to the back cover, and look at the top right-hand corner, you’ll see a little ding (measuring 2mm) that neither breaks through the plastic seal, nor compromises the sharp square edge of that corner (i.e. no indentation made). There is also one equally minuscule mark on the left-hand side corner, but upon closer inspection, the seal white mark looks only to be on the outside plastic wrap, not a flaw on the record cover itself. The plastic seal is intact everywhere but for one place on the back cover toward the bottom in the middle of the page. It is a small circular break that measures approximately 6mm. 

Everything I have described above is shown in the photographs. I have scrutinized the album multiple times and I see no other imperfection besides the three small items described above. It is otherwise pristine.

• No scuffs or scratches on cover or outer plastic
• No cut-out (drill) holes
• No saw-marks or major creases
• No splits in seam of original factory plastic seal
• No frayed edged or corners
• No stickers or labels or tape marks 
• No wax residue or leftover glue residue
• No writing or markings 
• No warping or water damage of any kind
• No discoloration from light damage or other environmental impacts

Please Note: Even if the lighting in some of the pictures makes it look like there might be a slight split in the plastic, I assure you that is only the optical effects of the light against/through the shrink-wrap. I’ve thoroughly scrutinized the outer plastic wrap and there are no breaks, tears or splits in the plastic other than the one small spot I described above in detail.
