Guns N' Roses"Appetite For Destruction" (1987)Guns N' Roses' first full-length LP from 1987. This is the original US 1st pressing with the withdrawn "rape" cover which was banned very early into this album's initial run. This is 100% original and is not a more common reissue or import pressing. The spine lists the catalog number as being XXXG 24148.Cover EXA very nice example of this rare cover. There is no ringwear, writing or creasing. The corners are lightly bumped and there is noticeable edgewear, the worst of which is a 3 inch seam split at the center of the top. The artwork itself looks nearly pristine. This would be an excellent candidate for framing.Vinyl NM-Very strong condition on this early pressing with the raised "A" on it's label by the spindle hole. No scratches, just a few light surface marks. I bought this used so I can't say for sure, but it looks like it's only been played a few times. Comes with it's original custom inner sleeve.
