TOOL-001 PICTURE VINYL!!!!

THE HOLY GRAIL OF TOOL COLLECTABLES!!!

Well, here it is fanboys! a chance to own the most sought after peice of Tool memorabilia.

Here is some info I got from collectiveunconscious.org:

"Produced by: Tool / David Bottrill
Recorded at: Ocean Way Studios + The Hook Studios, Hollywood, CA, USA - 1995/1996

Album Notes: Released only to certain outlets during the release of Ænima & for promotional release only / not for sale, this picture disc is very rare. There are some copies without the inlays that seem to pop-up from time to time but the "complete" package is hard to come by. It took me a very long time to attain this - thanks to my friend FBZ. I really wish I knew more about this. A friend of mine works for a rather large distribution company in the US & according to the records they have (not on computers, hand-written) there were only 1,000 of these distributed to chain-stores, radio stations, Europe and independent record stores. Unfortunately, I cannot verify this information 100% but it seems realistic. This may be one of the rarest of the Tool picture discs released. The artwork itself is rather interesting. The tracks on the vinyl are not any different than the Ænima release but there is something to be said about watching the disc spin as the music pumps out of the speakers - however, since I just played this once, I would not recommend constant play because, really, this is simply a collector's item."

I can't guarantee what they say, but I think they are a pretty reliable source.

I hate to get rid of this, but have fallen on hard times. I included a picture of part of my Tool collection. You will only get the item you listed (TOOL-001 Pic. Vinyl)!!! I will be adding more of the collection to ebay as time permits. Keep an eye out for more auctions from me for rare, and hard to get items. The reserve is set to a good market value. The condition is excellent. The insert has slight creases in it. I imagine it could be flattened out with some phone books, or something. Over-all, the insert is in pretty good condition. The plastic sleeve has seen better days... but it's a plastic sleeve.

Insurance is REQUIRED for shipping! I will not be held responsible for loss, or damage in transit. This item will be packed VERY well.Shipping costs will be $16 to continental US. Anywhere else please contact me for for shipping costs. I will not ship to some countries, and reserve the right to cancel bids based on location to be shipped. There are some maximum insurance coverages to some countries. I will not falsify customs forms... don't ask!

If you have ANY question, please don't hesitate to ask.
