Description

You are looking at one of the rarest Elliott Smith items you may ever see. 
This is a vinyl test pressing of WIGLP51 'Either/Or' on Domino Records, arguably Elliott Smith's finest offering.
There will only be a few of these in existence...test pressings are issued to the record label in order to check the pressing is OK before producing the commercial version of the record. As such test pressings are extremely collectible and very valuable. 
As you can see from the images, this example is in MINT condition, showing no sign that it has ever been played. It has always been stored upright in a lightproof box within a plastic sleeve. It's been in my collection for over ten years. 
I have a large collection of Elliott smith rarities and I am beginning to sell them.
The item will obviously be packed very well (indestructibly) for shipment and will be sent by tracked mail.
I'm happy to consider sensible offers.
