HIStory: Past, Present and Future, Book I — Michael Jackson Original 1995 US Pressing — 3LP Vinyl Box Set (Epic, E359000S1)
One of the most ambitious box sets in music history — Michael Jackson’s HIStory, released in 1995, paired 15 remastered greatest hits with 15 brand new tracks across three full records, backed by a 52-page booklet documenting his career and legacy. This is the genuine original US pressing, offered here as a complete, exceptionally well-preserved example.
THE GENUINE ARTICLE, NOT THE REISSUE
There’s a lot of confusion in the market between this original 1995 US release and the later EU pressing on orange vinyl — a distinct, separate release with noticeably lower collector value. This listing is the real deal: the original US catalog E359000S1, correctly labelled and complete.
COMPLETE, CORRECT, AND UNTOUCHED WHERE IT COUNTS
Vinyl: All three records appear unplayed — no visible marks or wear to the playing surface Inner sleeves: Original red and gold printed sleeves, untouched — no creases, tears, or fading Booklet: The full original 52-page HIStory colour booklet, crisp and barely opened. This matters — many comparable listings quietly substitute the shorter CD-reissue booklet, which isn’t the correct piece for this vinyl release. This one is Outer box: Light cosmetic surface marks from age and storage — nothing structural, no tears, no splits. Doesn’t touch the integrity of what’s inside
WHY THIS ONE’S WORTH HAVING Complete original pressings with unplayed vinyl and the correct booklet are getting harder to find as more copies get opened, played, or broken up piece by piece. Recent completed sales for comparable original US examples have consistently landed in the $1,500–$1,600 range over the past two months — this set stacks up well against that, with the added bonus of correct, matching components throughout.
A genuine, well-kept piece of Michael Jackson history — ready for a collection that will appreciate it.
