	£		370
	$		491

This is an absolutely beautiful copy of the extremely rare Canadian first pressing of the very first, self-titled LP by Rush

Moon Records MN100

MN-100-A / MN-100-B matrix numbers

Original Moon Records labels

Original single sleeve with red lettering to front, Moon Records logos and catalogue numbers, different publishing credits, different rear text and layout.

The thick card sleeve is as close to 100% mint as you could ever hope to find! - Absolutely perfect and as new except for the tiniest amount of extremely light storage wear. - No splits, tears, rips, creases. No writing or sticker marks. A perfect spine and just the slightest beginnings of extremely light ringwear. This sleeve really is as new!

Both labels are also absolutely perfect and as new with no spindle marks at all!

The record itself has been played no more than two or three times since new. This LP was bought new by me off a well-known (and hugely expensive...!) internet-based collectors site. Unbelievably, this was a new, unsold genuine stock copy of this rare LP. I paid a small fortune for it but it really is lovely...

There are a couple of extremely small, light surface marks and several pressing marks (which are an unavoidable result of 1970's North American vinyl - They do not sound...) but this LP is accurately graded as very near mint.

I do not believe that better copies of this LP exist. This is museum-quality and I really don't want to sell it...!

I've had to put a reserve on this one.

IMPORTANT NOTE!!!!! - Postage and packing is additional to the final auction price. A guide to postage charges is included below. PLEASE do not pay me before I have sent you an invoice with the total price including postage and insurance (where necessary). Thanks!
