Listing Description
The Doors – The Soft Parade (1969)
Condition: Factory Sealed / New Old Stock (NOS) Pressing: 1969 First US Pressing (Elektra EKS-75005)
Offered here is a museum-quality, Factory Sealed first pressing of The Doors' fourth studio album, The Soft Parade. This is not a modern reissue; this is a genuine 1969 artifact that has remained unopened for over 55 years.
As a first pressing of EKS-75005, this copy likely contains the rare Gold/Tan Elektra labels (specifically from the Allentown pressing plant) or the early Red Big E labels, both of which are highly coveted by collectors. The shrink wrap is tight and original, preserving the gatefold jacket in its pristine, unhandled state.
-
Jacket Condition: Mint (Sealed). Sharp corners, vibrant colors, and no signs of ring wear or split seams.
-
Vinyl Condition: Mint (Presumed). Never played, never touched by human hands since leaving the factory in 1969.
