Description

Up for auction is a Velvet Underground & Nico record, V6-5008 . The outer sleeve is an "Emerson" 1st state cover with actor Eric Emerson's torso projected on the back of the stage. The front cover has the full banana sticker on the cover though the stem was pulled off and reattached long ago. 
The issue with the covers and inside the gatefold is the discoloration which I assume to be mildew stains from storage in a basement, but I can't say for sure. There are no seam splits.
The record is graded VG+ with a few hairlines on Side 2 but very nice condition overall. Labels look perfect. Please not the matrix numbers:
Side 1: V6-5008 Side 1 MGS-558-REV Side 2: V6-5008 Side 2 MGS-559-RE-1
According to Discogs, this is a pressing from 1968 that's typically with the censored 3rd state cover. I can't say this copy came from the pressing plant like this or not.
SHIPPING: Price includes Priority Mail and USPS Insurance. U.S. sales only.
Please ask any questions before bidding, and good luck!
