NIRVANA 'BLEACH' ORIGINAL 3rd PRESSING PINK VINYL LP *ERIKA RECORDS*
I HAVE OWNED SINCE NEW, AND ON MARCH 9, 2021 I SLICED SHRINK IN ORDER TO SEE WHICH COLOR THE VINYL WAS SINCE THIS EDITION WAS RELEASED IN A FEW DIFFERENT
COLORS. PIC's 2 & 3 SHOW SHRINK STILL NOT COMPLETELY OPENED. WILL BE WELL PROTECTED FOR SHIPPING.
The 1st pressing of Bleach was of 1,000 on white vinyl. Some of these came with posters.
The 2nd Sub Pop pressing was of 2,000 on black vinyl. Most of these came with posters.
The 3rd pressings, manufactured by Erika Records, were on a variety of colors:
pink, pink marble, purple marble, green marble, yellow-green marble, and blue marble.
Some are much rarer than others, and this is reflected in the pricing. Pink is most common. Red, pink marble, purple marble, and green marble are all roughly even in scarcity. The yellow-green marble one is rarer. Blue marble has always been the rarest and most expensive of this group. For some reason, the price of the purple one has taken off in recent years
The 4th generation pressings. These are pretty straightforward. They were on black vinyl, but were easily distinguished from the earlier black pressing. There was a bar code and the Sub Pop URL on the back of the sleeve.
Colored Vinyl Editions:
Sub Pop used a number of pressing plants for their vinyl (because they were always in debt and trying to secure a line of credit with whoever wanted to deal with them), but one company stands out: Erika. While the various colored LPs may not all be from Erika, many copies mention Erika on the sleeve, the LP labels, or both.
