Madonna - True Blue UK/EU Vinyl LP with Rare 1987 Tour Hype Stickers & Giant Poster!
Up for auction is a magnificent, definitive collector's copy of Madonna’s multi-platinum 1986 masterpiece, 'True Blue'. This is the highly sought-after 1987 UK/European tour edition reissue package, completely complete with both original factory hype stickers on the front jacket and the massive, ultra-rare 'Who's That Girl World Tour 1987' giant souvenir poster!
Finding this album with both delicate hype stickers perfectly intact is tough enough, but finding it with the original fold-out tour poster preserved inside is incredibly rare. The album features her absolute signature 80s anthems: 'Papa Don't Preach', 'Open Your Heart', 'Live to Tell', and 'La Isla Bonita'.

Condition Report:
Vinyl: VG+ (Very good plus)
The vinyl is in gorgeous condition, retaining an incredible, high-gloss factory mirror sheen across both sides. Under strong light, there are only a couple of light, superficial sleeve-removal hairlines, but absolutely nothing deep, feelable, or audio-affecting. The labels are exceptionally bright and clean with almost no spindle traces visible. It plays beautifully with a powerful, crisp 1980s punch.
Sleeve: VG+ (Very Good Plus)
The outer sleeve is structurally solid, firm, and highly presentable. The spine is completely square and fully readable. Crucially, the two original factory hype stickers on the front face are perfectly positioned and show no peeling. There is only some light edge/corner storage rubbing and minor ring-wear on the reverse blue face, typical for this vintage cardstock. No splits, tears, or writing.
The Poster: VG+ (Very Good Plus)
The original giant fold-out 'Who's That Girl 1987 Tour' poster is a stunning piece of memorabilia. It features its original factory folds, has zero pinholes, and no blue-tack residue. Please note there is a small, clean tear at one of the intersections where the poster folds, which is very common for paper of this size and age. It still presents beautifully and remains a fantastic, clean archival piece.
Lyric Inner Sleeve: VG+
The original heavy paper lyric inner sleeve is clean with crisp text, showing just a light hint of handling and a tiny edge indentation, but no aggressive side splits.
Shipping & Packaging:
The entire package will be shipped inside a stiff, professional cardboard record mailer reinforced with heavy-duty cardboard packing inserts.
Please review the high-resolution photos to view the matrix stamps, pristine labels, and the stunning tour poster. If you have any questions at all, please drop me a line!
