Ritchie Blackmore’s Rainbow / Same Title
Japan Orig. LP


Polydor MP 2502

Appendices: "Original OBI", "G/F Cover", "Insert" & “Sticker Sheet”

Description: This is scarce Japanese original copy ( released in 1975 ) of their 1st album, coming with complete appendices + rare sticker sheet. An enclosed sticker sheet seems to have been issued in limited number only for some early copies. It’s very hard to find this album with sticker sheet even in our country year by year. Scarce item from Japan to serious collector.


Condition: G+/EX- ( Cover / Disc )


COVER: Cover is lightly worn on the corners & right-edge, while the spine-edge vertically creased. It’s stained with brown spots in part on lower right-rim ( corner ) of front and upper center-fold inside gate-fold ( See photos ). Light ring-wear is on upper portion of back side. Otherwise it has no tear, dent, strip & writing...OK.

DISC: Disc is excellent in condition. It has a light scratch at the start of Side B-1 and B-3 ( inaudible each…See photo ). There’re a few to several spindle-marks on each label. Otherwise it has none of any scuff & hairline, which is to be rated as “EX-". No flaw on the groove of Side A. It plays fine on each side.

OBI: G+, being stained with brown spots on the surface of back side.

INSERT: G, being lightly rippled and tanned with brown spots in places on the surface of each side.

STICKER SHEET: EX ( still unused )
