“LIMITED EDITION” DOUBLE LP GATEFOLD SET |
||
DESCRIPTION (ACTUAL IMAGES) IT'S TRULY HARD TO BELIEVE THAT IT'S BEEN TWENTY YEARS SINCE IT'S RELEASE IN THE YEAR 2000. THIS DOUBLE LP "LIMITED EDITION" PACKAGING IS ABSOLUTELY STUNNING AND HAS BEEN OUT OF PRINT SHORTLY FOLLOWING ITS DEBUT IN NOVEMBER 2000. THIS HEAVY WEIGHT PACKAGE IS THE ORIGINAL VERY FIRST PRESSING. ITS HIGHLIGHTS ARE A GATEFOLD COVER, HEAVY-WEIGHT ALBUMS, THICK CARDBOARD INNER SLEEVES THAT FEATURES SOME OF THE WORLD'S 45 RPM PICTURE SLEEVES (WITH A BLURB FROM PRODUCER GEORGE MARTIN), FOUR A-4 SIZED PSYCHEDELIC RICHARD AVEDON 1967 PHOTOS, AND FINALLY, A HEAVY-DUTY FOLDED LARGE POSTER THAT FEATURES THE REMAINDER OF THE WORLD'S PICTURE SLEEVES. THE LATER ISSUE OMITTED THE FOUR PHOTOS AND POSTER. THIS DOUBLE VINYL SET IS VERY REMINISCENT OF THE BEATLES "WHITE ALBUM" AND FAR OUTWEIGHS THE "1" CD RELEASE BY MILES. THIS IMMACULATE STILL SEALED EXAMPLE HAS AN EXTREMELY TIGHT SEAL CORNER TO CORNER, WITH FOUR SHARP CORNERS AND A COMPLETE WRAP. THE GRAPHICS AND COLORS ARE ASTONISHING. A SMALL "HMV IMPORT" ROUND STICKER IS STILL RETAINED ON THE FRONT COVER SHRINK IN LOWER LEFT AREA. HERE ARE IMAGES FROM A PREVIOUSLY OPENED COPY, DISPLAYING THE GOODIES INSIDE THIS EXQUISITE STILL SEALED EXAMPLE:
