This is a translucent-vinyl pressing. The record appears black under normal lighting, but light passes through the vinyl when it is held in front of a strong light source. A dedicated backlit photograph is included to clearly show the translucent characteristic of this copy.

JACKET: Very Good (VG) – The original jacket shows noticeable storage/shelf wear, primarily along the spine and edges, with areas of color/paper loss and additional corner/edge wear. These areas have been specifically photographed and are clearly shown. Please review all photographs carefully for the exact jacket condition.

THE BIG MONEY
MANHATTAN PROJECT
MARATHON

The back cover carries the original gold promotional stamp stating “Lent for Promotional Use Only” with the accompanying promotional-use/return language.
