Description: Unopened sealed original pressing of J.R.R. Tolkien's Poems and Songs of Middle Earth. The original shrink wrap has some minor wear at all four corners, please see the pictures. This record is from 1967 but was well taken care of. This particular copy is a misprint, track A6 "The Sea-Bell" does not appear on the rear cover. This is a very RARE album! Pictures are of the actual album. Happy to add more pictures or answer any questions.
