David Bowie - The Man Who Sold The World ( 1st pressing ) - Single Vinyl Record - 1st Stereo pressing - 1971

Here we have a sought after, rare and valuable Bowie album , the first UK pressing of The Man Who Sold The World on Mercury label 6338 041 with misspelling of Tonny Visconti on both sides ( later amended to Tony) . This super rare iconic textured “dress” sleeve was withdrawn shortly after release. \r
\r
This record has been play tested pre sale being part of my personal collection and I have used the international grading system in describing the record and sleeve as follows: \r
\r
Sleeve VG+ shows three small marks to front\r
( see photo) and none to the reverse side and only expected wear to edges given this is over 50 years old. There are no tears or splits. \r
\r
Vinyl VG+ it retains its sheen with light spindle wear , light scuffing and hairlines but no scratches that affect the playing of the record. Please see photos. \r
\r
I have included the original inner sleeve , a new poly lined inner sleeve, a record outer sleeve and it will be posted in a record mailer with added protection. There are no additional postage costs for you. \r
\r
Please note this record sells for up to 4973 Euros (latest figure on Popsike) and can only continue to increase in value. \r
\r
Happy bidding fellow Bowie fans \r
