Description

Wailers/Bob Marley. Catch A Fire. ILPS 9241 1973 A3U/4BU 1st Press. Zippo Cover.


Here is my copy of the Wailers Catch a Fire album on Island Records from 1973. This as you can see is one of the 20000 firrst pressings with the hinged Zippo lighter cover.


The cover is in very good condition with some wear to the edges and a little scuffing. The hinge rivet if fully attached and opens and closes as it should

Although it is worn you can still just make out the basing street address indicating a very early pressing.


The black paper inner sleeve is present cut down to fit the cover snd marked as made in Great Britain. It is in Ok condition with some tears but it serves its purpose.


The record has the ILPS 9241 A3U and B4U matrix numbers with the BML 2001 A3U 4BU numbers crossed out. It is of course on tje pink rim Island label


The playing surfaces of the record are excellent with just a few paper scuffs and light finger marks. I can see no scratches on either side.


This record has been in my collection for over 25 years now and from memory sounds superb. Please take into account that I have not owned a working deck for quite a few years now though.


I have included as many pictures as I could to help you assess the condition but if you have any questions drop me a line. I am open to offers but please make them reasonable ones we all know the value of this record.


Postage cost is set to cover special delivery and full insurance
