About This Item
New York: Verve,, 1967. First pressing of this seminal album, signed by the producer Andy Warhol on the iconic cover he designed. The first pressing was made in two plants, East Coast and West Coast, this an example from the East Coast; both record and sleeve numbered V6-5008. The first issued copies had an image of the dancer Eric Emerson projected upside down above the band's photograph on the rear cover; Emerson threatened to sue and the record was quickly recalled and the image of Emerson airbrushed out (as here). All later pressings were produced clean of the stencilling evident in this copy. Any copies with Emerson visible are of the exceptionally rare first issue, though this second issue was still produced in small numbers and is very scarce indeed. 12-inch vinyl record with plain paper slip, in original card folding sleeve designed by Andy Warhol with banana peel sticker. Record finger marked and scratched, sleeve rubbed to edges, spine toned.
