Description
A genuine original 1991 European pressing of Nirvana's landmark album Nevermind, complete with its original printed picture/lyric inner sleeve.
I'm gradually selling my personal record collection, built up over many years, and this is one of the records I'd really like to see go to someone who will appreciate exactly what it is.
This is not a modern reissue or 180g repress. It is an original German-manufactured European issue on Geffen / DGC / Sub Pop, produced at the time of the album's original release.

These early A-1/B-1 Sonopress matrices are among the earliest German pressings of Nevermind and are significantly more desirable than the later A-2/B-2 variants that were produced in much greater numbers. Collectors actively seek these earliest stampers because they represent the album as it first appeared on vinyl in Europe.
Original 1991 European copies have become increasingly sought after over the past few years as collectors move beyond modern reissues and look for authentic first-era pressings. Complete examples retaining the original inner sleeve are becoming noticeably harder to find in strong condition.
Condition
Vinyl: EX
Sleeve: VG+ with light age-related edge and corner wear
Original inner: EX
Please study the photographs carefully as they form part of the description.
I'm not a record dealer clearing warehouse stock. I'm gradually selling my own collection. I'd much rather this went to a Nirvana fan or vinyl collector than simply disappeared into storage again. I'll listen to offers from fans who will cherish it.
Every record I sell is packed with love, care and professionalism. The vinyl is removed from the outer sleeve before packing to minimise the risk of seam splits in transit, and everything is securely protected using proper record mailers and stiffeners.
If you'd like any additional photographs of the labels, runout matrices or vinyl surfaces, I'm always happy to provide them. Thanks for looking!
