Description

Metallica "Ride the Lightning" Elektra Masterdisk Specialty Records Pressing (1984)


This record is probably in the best condition of any pre-owned Metallica album I have ever owned.  Vinyl looks to have never been played and the outer sleeve barely shows any signs of wear.  The corners are crisp and you have to squint to make out the faint ringwear.  Original  inner sleeve is in good shape with only a small tear (2-3 in.) at the bottom center. 


Handling time is listed as 3 days but I ordinarily ship the day after payment has been made.  Check out the pictures and please contact me if you have any questions.
