FOR SALE:
A rare, original U.S. pressing of the first Hip-Hop double album (2xLP) in history. DJ Jazzy Jeff & The Fresh Prince - I'm The Rapper, He's The DJ
1988 Double Vinyl Album with Controversial A Nightmare On Elm Street / New Line Cinema Disclaimer Printed on Album Cover
DETAILS:
-See and hear a quick video of this album and get a little insight into the "nightmare" lawsuit at our affiliate Instagram account. Seach for user, WaxyWednesday.
Very rare, original U.S. pressing with an extremely unique disclaimer from New Line Cinema/A Nightmare on Elm Street printed directly on the album's cover. No other pressing of this album includes the printed disclaimer on cover. Not even other formats of this album, such as CD or cassette tape, carry the permanent disclaimer from New Line Cinema. You can verify this by checking discography web sources and viewing the images of each pressing's cover. You should notice only this pressing's cover displays the permanent fine print. Although not permanent at all, some subsequent vinyl pressings carry the disclaimer not on the cover directly but on a sticker that was affixed to the original shrink wrap which obviously not as unique and rare as what you see here.

Condition: Pre-owned, used. Records graded: VG/VG+. Jacket graded: VG.
This double album has seen a fair amount of use over the years so scratches and scuffs are visible but this wear does not effect the listening experience. No scratches are deep enough to be felt with a fingernail so all scratches are light and as mentioned before do not effect playback. Although the LPs have a fair amount of visible use I give them a grade of VG/VG+ because when played they sound great; there are no skips, interruptions or audible damage. The 2 inner album liners (or sleeves) are in overall good condition. Both inner sleeves have slight seam splits at their bottoms and the tracklist sleeve has some penciled "X's" next to a few song names. The cover, like the LPs, has been handled over the years so wear and age shows. There is some discoloration, small stains or spots and a dented corner. I give the album jacket a grade of VG because it is completely intact, no seam splits but has a fair amount of wear. Please see all photos.
I consult a record grading guide (found below for your reference) when evaluating vinyl for its condition grade.
THANK YOU FOR LOOKING. QUESTIONS? JUST ASK.

Goldmine Records: record grading guide
- Mint (M) Absolutely perfect in every way. Certainly never been played, possibly even still sealed.(More on still sealed under "Other Considerations"). Should be used sparingly as a grade, If at all.
- Near Mint (NM or M-) A nearly perfect record. Many dealers won't give a grade higher than this implying (perhaps correctly)that no record is ever truly perfect.
The record should show no obvious signs of wear. A 45 RPM or EP sleeve should have no more than the most minor defects, such as almost invisible ring wear or other signs of slight handling.
An LP cover should have no creases, folds, seam splits or other noticeable similar defects. No cut-out holes, either. And of course, the same should be true of any other inserts, such as posters, lyric sleeves and the like.
Basically, an LP in near mint condition looks as if you just got it home from a new record store and removed the shrink wrap.
Near Mint is the highest price listed in all Goldmine price guides. Anything that exceeds this grade, in the opinion of both buyer and seller, is worth significantly more than the highest Goldmine book value. - Very Good Plus (VG+) Generally worth 50 percent of the Near Mint value.
A Very Good Plus record will show some signs that it was played and otherwise handled by a previous owner who took good care of it.
Record surfaces may show some signs of wear and may have slight scuffs or very light scratches that don't affect one's listening experiences. Slight warps that do not affect the sound are "OK".
The label may have some ring wear or discoloration, but it should be barely noticeable. The center hole will not have been misshapen by repeated play.
Picture sleeves and LP inner sleeves will have some slight wear, lightly turned up corners, or a slight seam split. An LP cover may have slight signs of wear also and may be marred by a cut-out hole, indentation or corner indicating it was taken out of print and sold at a discount.
In general, if not for a couple things wrong with it, this would be Near Mint. All but the most mint-crazy collectors will find a Very Good Plus record highly acceptable. - Very Good (VG) Generally worth 25 percent of Near Mint value. Many of the defects found in a VG+ record will be more pronounced in a VG disc. Surface noise will be evident upon playing, especially in soft passages and during a song's intro and fade, but will not overpower the music otherwise. Groove wear will start to be noticeable, as with light scratches (deep enough to feel with a fingernail) that will affect the sound.
Labels may be marred by writing, or have tape or stickers (or their residue) attached. The same will be true of picture sleeves or LP covers. However, it will not have all of these problems at the same time, only two or three of them.
Goldmine price guides with more than one price will list Very Good as the lowest price. This, not the Near Mint price, should be your guide when determining how much a record is worth, as that is the price a dealer will normally pay you for a Near Mint record. - Good (G), Good Plus (G+) Generally worth 10-15 percent of the Near Mint value. Good does not mean Bad! A record in Good or Good Plus condition can be put onto a turntable and will play through without skipping. But it will have significant surface noise and scratches and visible groove wear (on a styrene record, the groove will be starting to turn white).
A cover or sleeve will have seam splits, especially at the bottom or on the spine. Tape, writing, ring wear or other defects will start to overwhelm the object.
It is a common item, you'll probably find another copy in better shape eventually. Pass it up. But, if it's something you have been seeking for years, and the price is right, get it...but keep looking to upgrade. - Poor (P), Fair (F) Generally worth 0-5 percent of the Near Mint price. The record is cracked, badly warped, and won't play through without skipping or repeating. The picture sleeve is water damaged, split on all three seams and heavily marred by wear and writing. The LP cover barely keeps the LP inside it. Inner sleeves are fully seam split, crinkled, and written upon.
Except for impossibly rare records otherwise unattainable, records in this condition should be bought or sold for no more than a few cents each.
