Velvet Underground The Velvet Underground & Nico - 1st - VG/EX US Vinyl LP

VELVET UNDERGROUND The Velvet Underground & Nico (Very rare and essential 1967 US first issue East Coast press blue & silver Verve label 11-track MONO LP, housed in the legendary Andy Warhol pasted gatefold sleeve with unpeeled banana sticker, with the original withdrawn Emerson "torso" image upside down on the back cover [see more info] and company catalogue inner. The label is a large 't' blue & silver Verve design with 'Side 1' & '2' to the lower left [East Coast design] & hand scratched matrices in the run-offs. This is a wonderful one previous owner copy. The iconic sleeve displays some minor wear mostly to the edges & corners, and has some light foxing. A past owner has written their name neatly on the inside of the sleeve, but there are no deletion cuts or writing and the all-important banana remains unpeeled. The spine is clear as day & the panels remain a wonderful off white. The labels show just a couple of light spindle wear and the vinyl is a really nice and clean Excellent grading, with only very light signs of play. It is virtually impossible to find a withdrawn first issue copy of this album with an unpeeled banana. Highly Recommended V6-5008)

TRACKLISTING AND EXTRA INFORMATION
Pressing Info: The actor Eric Emerson who appeared in the Velvet Underground's multi-media event 'The Exploding Plastic Inevitable' filed a lawsuit against Verve Records for the non-payment of the rights regarding the use of his image, which can be seen upside down on the back cover. To counter this a very small number were issued by Verve between March and April 1967, with the disputed image over-stickered to cover the top of the offending photo. This variant is often referred to as "the Eric Emerson Lawsuit Sticker' or 'second state'.

This example is the first state, without the covering sticker.
