Doors L.A. Woman (1st Press, Inner, CTH)

RARE true 1971 Elektra FIRST pressing with rounded corners and embossed "Doors" text on the front cover. Front cover has a cut-out window with clear acetate, on which the band photo is printed black half-tone. Includes the original Yellow inner sleeve with rounded corners, which provides a yellow background to the cover image when inserted into the sleeve. Back of the inner sleeve has a black-print crucifix image.
Of note: 1. This issue has the "15 Columbus Circle" address on back cover and the labels. 2. This issue does not have the Warner Bros "W" logo on the "butterfly" labels. 3. This is a Columbia Records Pressing Plant, Terre Haute pressing with "CTH" and "T" in dead wax run-outs. 4. Artisan Sound Recorders logo stamped in dead wax run-outs. 5. Song B3 is credited to Modern Music, later properly credited to John Lee Hooker, Arc Music.

Vinyl has a few faint paper sleeve scuffs/hazing just holding grade back from NM, nothing I can feel. Labels are excellent. Original yellow inner sleeve has light cornerwear/edgewear, slight blow-outs at the middle of bottom edge and one side edge, and a large seam split/rip at the middle of the other side edge. Cover has light cornerwear/edgewear, a slight bend/crease bottom left corner, a touch of spidering/creasing around the edges, light wear at the right side edge of the cellophane window and faint ringwear/hazing.
