Description

Offered for sale is an original pressing of the 1973 Japan-only compilation album Best 20 by Elton John, including the original obi and rare poster.

Note:  This copy appears to be unplayed new old stock.

About this copy: This copy of Best 20 is a 1973 Japanese pressing on the DJM label.  The title is a bit misleading; Best 20 includes sixteen songs.

The cover is M-.  The obi is M-.  The “hojyuhyo” (reorder tag) is still attached.

This cover includes a 12 page photo/lyric booklet and was not issued with an insert.

The poster is M- and has no rips, tears, or holes.  We think we unfolded it for the first time to take the photo.

The disc is M and is likely unplayed.  Clean disc!

A nearly perfect copy of a scarce Elton John LP that is hard to find complete.
