Description

PLEASE READ THE ENTIRE ITEM DESCRIPTION CAREFULLY AND LOOK AT ALL PHOTOS AS THERE IS A LOT TO DESCRIBE! 
PLEASE ASK ANY QUESTIONS BEFORE BUYING!
FACTORY SEALED COPY FROM 1981! FROM MY OWN PERSONAL COLLECTION! 
THIS WAS A BIRTHDAY GIFT IN the EARLY 1980s. I ALREADY HAD A COPY, SO I NEVER OPENED THIS COPY. 
THIS IS A REALLY NICE COPY AS IT HAS BEEN PRESERVED IN PLASTIC LO THESE MANY YEARS!
THERE IS A SMALL CUT-OUT CLIP IN THE UPPER RIGHT CORNER OF THE FRONT COVER.
THERE ARE A FEW NOTICEABLE SCRAPES ON THE SHRINK WRAP. MOST NOTEABLE IS A "Z" SHAPED SCRAPE NEAR THE CENTER OF THE SPINE ON THE FRONT OF THE SHRINK THAT HAS ALSO CAUSED A SCRAPE TO THE COVER. (please see pics) 
Up for sale is one (1) The Police - Ghost In The Machine LP from 1981 on A&M Records (#SP-3730) THAT IS STILL FACTORY SEALED AND UNTOUCHED BY HUMAN HANDS!
The vinyl and any inner sleeve are assumed to be in mint condition as this is still factory sealed and untouched by human hands.
The cover is in MINT condition with typical wear from age, including, but not limited to corner dings / soft corners, dings, fading, scrapes, creases & crumples, dings, ring wear, etc... There are no split seams.
The Price Sticker is affixed to the front of the shrink wrap. It may come off with some elbow grease, but I'm leaving it as-is. 
There are a few noticeable scrapes on the shrink wrap.


Features, of course, Sting, Stewart Copeland and Andy Summers.


I am thinning out my vinyl collection. This is the actual item you will receive. See the photos and judge for yourself.
