Media Condition: Mint (M)
Sleeve Condition: Very Good Plus (VG+)
Metal box has the usual oxidation and discoloration of time. All 3 records are UNPLAYED MINT. This has never been played. Each record housed in a plastic sleeve and separated by white circular paper dividers. A5 tracklist is also included with a few yellowing spots. METAL 1 sticker intact on the back of tin. No damage to the metal box at all, just surface age wear as has happened to all of these. Ask for pics!
METAL 1 sticker is on the rear of the can
Notes:
"Public Image Ltd...John Lydon.Keith Levene.Wobble.Jeannette Lee.Dave Crowe..." were the members of PIL at the time of the release. However, Jeannette Lee and Dave Crowe as non-musical band members are not featured on the record. Packaged in a 12" film can-style metal box. Includes an A5 size sheet with tracklist and line-up. According to “Metal Box Stories from John Lydon's Public Image Limited,” by Phil Strongman, published by Helter Skelter (in 2006), ISBN 978-1-900924-66-5, Dennis Morris was responsible for the design. Side B ends with a locked groove which repeats the last few seconds of "Swan Lake" endlessly until the needle is lifted from the record. Edition of 50,000 copies (plus an extra 10,000 for export).
