Description

Tool Aenima Original First “Special Cut” Pressing - 1996 - Beautiful Copy!


An exceptionally well-preserved, original “special cut” gatefold first pressing of Tool’s Ænima. A rare opportunity for collectors and fans alike.

I acquired this copy while interning with BMG Records (1996–1998). The promo saw cut in the jacket confirms its authenticity.

Condition:

• Vinyl: Near Mint (NM). Played fewer than five times since 1996. VPI cleaned, stored in audiophile-grade inner sleeves. Dead flat, pristine surfaces.

• Labels: Printed center labels (faint).

• Jacket: Very Good+ (VG+). Saw cut present, very faint ring wear at the top front and back. Otherwise, clean and well-preserved. This grade is on the conservative side.

• Printed Inner sleeves: No tears or damage beyond saw cut marks.

Details:

Back cover reads: “The BMG and Zoo Entertainment logos are trademarks of BMG Music • ℗ © 1996 BMG Music • All Rights Reserved • Manufactured and Distributed by BMG Entertainment, New York, NY • Printed in U.S.A. • 72445-11087-1.”

From a smoke-free, meticulously maintained collection.

Shipping: Will be packed securely in a professional record mailer with protective padding to ensure safe delivery.

Give the Tool fan in your life — or yourself — the ultimate gift this holiday season!
